Figure 2 Lung ultrasound assessment in patients with mechanical ventilation ready for extubation. (A) For moderate loss of lung aeration (multiple, well-defined B lines), lung ultrasound score (LUS)=1; (B) for severe loss of lung aeration (multiple coalescent B lines), LUS=2; (C) for lung consolidation, LUS=3.
