PROCEDURE

Lung ultrasound examination on Day 1 and Day 2 to 4

A standardized lung ultrasound examination using the GE Vivid ultrasound system will be performed following the tomographic scan on Day 1 and repeated on Day 2 to 4. Correlation of ultrasound-based aeration scores will be done with lung aeration measured by computed tomographic images.

PROCEDURE

Lung ultrasound examination on Day 1

A standardized lung ultrasound examination using the GE Vivid ultrasound system will be performed following the tomographic scan on Day 1 only. Correlation of ultrasound-based aeration scores will be done with lung aeration measured by computed tomographic images.

DEVICE

GE Vivid Ultrasound system

The GE Vivid ultrasound system will be used for all lung ultrasound examinations performed in this study.
