Abstract
Combined cardiopulmonary ultrasound (CCPUS) can be applied to bedside differential diagnosis of acute dyspnea. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis is usually a chronic lung disease. However, some special diseases can cause pulmonary interstitial fibrosis with rapid progression. This study included a patient with unexplained dyspnea. We excluded cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) by CCPUS and refused hemodialysis. The characteristics of lung ultrasound of the patient were similar to pulmonary interstitial fibrosis. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with antiglomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease combined with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis, causing acute progressive pulmonary interstitial fibrosis in lung tissue as a target organ.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (JCU) is an international journal dedicated to the worldwide dissemination of scientific information on diagnostic and therapeutic applications of medical sonography.
The scope of the journal includes--but is not limited to--the following areas: sonography of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, vascular system, nervous system, head and neck, chest, breast, musculoskeletal system, and other superficial structures; Doppler applications; obstetric and pediatric applications; and interventional sonography. Studies comparing sonography with other imaging modalities are encouraged, as are studies evaluating the economic impact of sonography. Also within the journal''s scope are innovations and improvements in instrumentation and examination techniques and the use of contrast agents.
JCU publishes original research articles, case reports, pictorial essays, technical notes, and letters to the editor. The journal is also dedicated to being an educational resource for its readers, through the publication of review articles and various scientific contributions from members of the editorial board and other world-renowned experts in sonography.
