Abstract

The review is devoted to the analysis of ultrasound lung comets (ULCs) that may be observed during ultrasound lung examination in cardiac patients in the case of accumulation of extravascular fluid in the lungs. Recent data on the mechanisms of these artefacts, examination and outcome evaluation methods are discussed. Differential diagnostics problems in patients with cardiac and pulmonary genesis of ULCs are also covered.
