Quantitative pleural line characterization outperforms traditional lung texture ultrasound features in detection of COVID-19.

Background And Objective: Lung ultrasound is an inherently user-dependent modality that could benefit from quantitative image analysis. In this pilot study we evaluate the use of computer-based pleural line (p-line) ultrasound features in comparison to traditional lung texture (TLT) features to test the hypothesis that p-line thickening and irregularity are highly suggestive of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and can be used to improve the disease diagnosis on lung ultrasound.

Methods: Twenty lung ultrasound images, including normal and COVID-19 cases, were used for quantitative analysis.
