Overview
Ultrasonography is helpful in making diagnosis of pleural effusion particularly in differentiating effusion from masses.[1] The extended thoracic spine sign on sonography has high sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing pleural effusion.[2] Chest or upper abdominal ultrasound may show subpulmonic effusion as shown below.[3][4][5]
