X-RAY ULTRASOUND COMPARISON AND DYNAMIC SONOGRAPHIC CONTROL OF PNEUMONIA IN CHILDREN
DescriptionComparative analysis of the informativity of ultrasonic and radiographic examination of the lungs at the initial diagnosis of inflammatory infiltrate and at case followup of its involution during treatment was performed in 154 children with pneumonia. Higher informativity of ultrasound compared with radiography was determined. All children underwent ultrasound monitoring of pneumonia since admission to the full restoration of normal ultrasound image. Assessment criteria of pneumonia involution were the size and echostructure of an airless zone. Stationary ultrasound was performed at least 3 times. Outpatient ultrasound was repeated at least 2 times within 1 month, in some cases children were observed up to 3 months with monthly dualfold study
