Lung Ultrasound Reduces Chest X-rays in Postoperative Care after Thoracic Surgery: Is There a Role for Artificial Intelligence?-Systematic Review.

LUS can reduce CXR after thoracic surgery. We presume that artificial intelligence could help increase the LUS accuracy, objectify the LUS findings, shorten the learning curve, and decrease the number of inconclusive results. To confirm this assumption, clinical trials are necessary. This research is funded by the Slovak Research and Development Agency, grant number APVV 20-0232.
