OVERVIEW
• Evidence base for use of thoracic ultrasound– diagnostic and interventional
• Pleural effusion– Characteristics of effusions– Transudates vs exudates– Colour fluid sign– Formulas for volume estimation
• Pneumothorax
• Pleural thickening Identification, DD with pleural effusion
• Pleural tumours

WHY ULTRASOUND?• Not all opacification is fluid… 1

WHY ULTRASOUND?
• Higher diagnostic sensitivity vs. plain chest radiography– pleural effusion +/- consolidation
• Accessible to clinician and patient– instant feedback to inform decision-making process
• Provides additional diagnostic information– echogenicity, septations, pleural thickening, underlying viscera
• Improves procedural outcomes– eliminates “dry tap”, limits risk of iatrogenic complications

THE EVIDENCE FOR FLUID
• Better than clinical examination 1
– 15% of clinically specified puncture sites inaccurate / “at risk”– 80% of these successfully aspirated / accessible with TUS– If clinical site not identified, TUS achieved in 54%– TUS prevented iatrogenic organ puncture in 10% of cases
• Reduces cost / complications in thoracentesis 2
– 61,261 thoracenteses, 47% performed without TUS– MV modelling and analysis– TUS reduced risk of pneumothorax by 19%– OR 0.81; 95% CI 0.74-0.90

INTERVENTIONS
• Thoracic ultrasound (TUS)– necessary for any pleural intervention for fluid– more sensitive than CXR for detection of fluid 1
– improves diagnostic accuracy and reduces complications 2

Normal lung surface
Left panel: Pleural line and A line (real-time). The pleural line is located 0.5 cm below the rib line in the adult. Its visible length between two ribs in the longitudinal scan is approximately 2 cm. The upper rib, pleural line, and lower rib (vertical arrows) outline a characteristic pattern called the bat sign.

SIZE OF EFFUSION ON US
Size / Volume measurement1: • 2cm depth of fluid = 480mls• 4cm depth of fluid = 960mls
Supine patients2:• Size calculation:
» Visceral – parietal (mm) x 20 = volume (mls)1
» Distance between posterior chest wall and lung of >50mm predicts >500ml thoracentesis vol2

• Compared to thoracoscopy the sensitivity of ultrasound guided forceps pleural biopsy in the diagnosis of malignant and tuberculous lesions was 85% and 88% respectively.
• The technique was absolutely specific in the diagnosis of malignant and tuberculous lesions.
