Summary

This study looked at 277 ICU patients on breathing machines to see how well chest X-rays (read by intensive care doctors) agreed with CT scans (read by radiologists) for diagnosing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The results showed only fair agreement, meaning X-rays may not be reliable enough on their own. The study suggests that using CT scans could lead to more accurate diagnoses.
