case_images: Case 1: B-mode and M-mode sonography using a linear transducer positioned in the mid-clavicular line at the 3rd left intercostal space. Arrows indicate the pleural lines (B: B-mode, M: M-mode).

case_images: In fact, the ultrasound pattern in M-mode sonography was almost as distinct as in a healthy volunteer (Figures 1 and 2).
