Abstract:
Pneumonia is a major disease threatening the health of children, and its diagnosis mainly depends on medical history, physical examination, chest X-ray and CT examination. The reliability of the physical examination was low, while the chest X-ray and CT examination had certain radiation damage to children. Therefore, in recent years, the application of lung ul-trasound is popular in diagnosis of pneumonia in pediatric patients. This article reviewed the application of lung ultrasonography in diagnosis and follow-up of pneumonia in pediatric patients..
