A new protocol was developed for assessing the severity of lung tissue damage according to ultrasound data, which showed a high diagnostic value in detecting COVID-19 pneumonia in comparison with CT. The results obtained give reason to recommend this protocol of ultrasound of the lungs as a highly sensitive method in diagnosing the severity of COVID-19 pneumonia. Its application is very important for dynamic examination of patients, especially in conditions of low availability of CT.
