Abstract
Dyspnea represents a diagnostic challenge to the emergency physician [1] and raises the questions of which criteria or procedures can be of assistance. Transthoracic ultrasound (TUS) allows the clinician to diagnose thoracic disorders in the emergency care setting. Despite the recent recommendations by an international panel [2], serious uncertainty regarding the utility of TUS still exists in the use of B-lines “ring down” vertical imaging artifacts originating from lung in the differential diagnosis of acute pulmonary edema.
