Abstract

Lung ultrasound is a monitoring tool that expands globally in different scenarios, it provides a range of ultrasound parameters that represent lung tissue without pathology, and artifacts that will be generated by the presence of pathology will be a great support during the diagnostic exercise for the physician, who should have the opportunity to do an assessment bedside the patient, dynamically, without risk to himself or to the patient. The semiology described for some of the diseases related to the physician involved in perioperative or critical patient management, has been taken from groups of experts who have validated some of these results with standard techniques such as chest radiography or computerized tomography.
