Lung ultrasound is an integral part of echocardiography in emergency conditions. The method allows determining the clinical status of the patient and remains an important differential diagnostic method for examining patients in intensive care units. The second part of the article is devoted to echocardiography as part of the differential diagnosis of dyspnea syndrome. Lung ultrasound for differentiation of interstitial pulmonary syndrome, the role of echocardiography in the diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism and verification of valvular pathology are described.
