Shining a light on automated diaphragm function quantification
Towards an ultrasound-based, reproducible measuring tool
Background: The diaphragm is poorly monitored in the Intensive care unit (ICU), despite its evident importance in respiration. Ultrasound (US) is frequently employed to evaluate diaphragm thickness (DT) and diaphragm thickening factor (DTF) but requires expertise and only

From the seashore to the stratosphere: A step closer to continuous lung monitoring using wearable ultrasound
Lung sliding quantification
Background: The prevention of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is an important topic in criticalcare. Lung overdistention is a great attributor to VILI. Regional evaluation of the pulmonary mechanicsis a relatively new method and is currently being studied using elect
