| Decreased lung sliding - In normal lungs, lung sliding refers to the parietal pleura moving against the visceral pleura - described as “ants marching.” |
| Lack of B-lines or comet tails – These artifacts will not be present if there is a pneumothorax and the presence of B-lines or comet tails can rule out a pneumothorax. |
| No Lung pulse – the visceral pleura moving along a stationary parietal pleura due to cardiac motion when lung sliding is not present. These are so called “T lines” on M-mode. These signify that the parietal and visceral pleura are opposing one another and therefore that there is no pneumothorax |
| Lung point – 100% specific for pneumothorax, this is the cutoff point above which you can appreciate the lung sliding and below which there is no lung sliding. The lung point is the pneumothorax border. |

| POCUS of right posterior lung demonstrates hyperechoic subpleural findings likely generated by the consolidated lung tissue known like C lines consistent with pneumonia. C lines are described as heterogenous hyperechoic irregularities below the pleural line. They are thought to arise from the pulling of the pleural by the consolidated lung tissue. |
| Shred sign is similar to C lines. Is an irregular line distinct from the pleural line due to consolidated lung tissues making contact with the aerated lung that is shredded and irregular. |
