Summary
This study looked at whether a bedside lung ultrasound can help predict serious breathing complications after surgery for esophageal cancer. Researchers followed 274 adults who had their esophagus removed. They checked ultrasound images right after surgery and the next day to see if the scans could catch early warning signs of lung problems like pneumonia or fluid buildup.
