DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.52229Computed tomography angiography of the neck showed worsening right ICA dissection with increased size of the pseudoaneurysm to 9 mm and worsening stenosis to greater than 70%.

A-Lines below the Diaphragm – A Case Report of Occult Pneumoperitoneum
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.52389The RUQ POCUS focusing over the left liver lobe shows multiple enhanced peritoneal stripe signs (red arrows) and several reverberation artifacts (yellow arrows). The second RUQ POCUS of the right lobe of the liver and the gallbladder shows reverberation artifacts (yellow arrow) and ring-down artifacts (blue arrow). The chest X-ray shows free air under the right diaphragm (orange arrow), which indicates pneumoperitoneum. The CT abdomen and pelvis show pneumoperitoneum near the porta hepatis (green arrow).
