“…B-lines, or "comet tail" artifacts, the number of which increases in pulmonary pathology (the more severe the course of the pathological process and the more pronounced changes in lung tissues, the more such artifacts) are easily detectable hyperechoic linear formations extending from pleura, against the background of preservation of echogenicity, and are indicated as one of the main signs of interstitial changes in the lungs, characterized by the presence of appropriate interstitial infiltration. According to the data we obtained in the article, which are consistent with the opinion of foreign authors, the visualization of multiple B-lines in certain scanning areas, which is due to the accumulation of extravascular fluid in the interlobular septa and their subsequent thickening, indicates the presence of interstitial disorders [10,11,12]. So, for example, with pulmonary edema, a uniform, often symmetrical on both sides, arrangement of multiple B-lines over the entire surface of the lung fields is observed.…”
