Lung Ultrasound in Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia: A Comparative Diagnostic Study With CT , Chest x‐Ray and Pulmonary Function Tests

Key Points

• Lung ultrasound showed high concordance with CT imaging, indicating diagnostic accuracy for bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
• CT and lung ultrasound assessment outperformed chest x-ray in diagnosing bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
• Analysis included correlation of lung ultrasound findings with pulmonary function parameters in affected infants.
• Further validation through larger cohorts is necessary to confirm the findings and utility of lung ultrasound.
