Abstract
Ultrasound diagnostic methods completely respond to all current requirements for diagnostic procedures and are valuable, safe, and relatively independent on the patient's condition. As ultrasound scanners are improved and new diagnostic regimens are developed, their use in different clinical field is extended. The most common ultrasound methods in pulmonology are echocardiography and ultrasonography of pleural cavities. Ultrasound investigation of the lung parenchyma is limited due to full reflection of ultra-sound from the aerated lung tissue. The lung density is increased in respiratory diseases; this gives an opportunity to use ultrasonography together with radiological methods for diagnosis and, therefore, to decrease radiation dose for the patient.
