Abstract

The ultrasound method is a non-invasive and safe diagnostic method. Ultrasound examination (ultrasound) of the diaphragm allows you to conduct a direct study of its structure and function. Using stationary and portable ultrasound scanners, the study of the diaphragm can be carried out in specialized laboratories, in outpatient departments, in various departments of the clinic, including in intensive care units, in patients in different clinical conditions. Ultrasound of the diaphragm can be implemented on devices of different technical levels. Despite the fact that at present the diaphragm ultrasound method is not standardized, nevertheless, it provides clinically important information for solving various clinical studies, including when conducting dynamic observation.
