Typical thoracic ultrasound findings.

Panel A demonstrates the appearance of normal air-filled lung, characterized by a bright white horizontal pleural line interrupted by rib shadows, and repeating horizontal reverberation artifacts known as A-lines. Panel B shows lung consolidation, characterized by subpleural echo-poor region greater than 10 mm in depth or length. Panel C demonstrates a small subpleural consolidation (SPC), characterized by a hypoechoic subpleural region less than 10 mm in depth and length, with distinct borders and a trailing comet-tail artifact.</p
