Question: is it safe to do thoracentesis if the pleural effusion is say 5cm but the lung tip gets close to pleural line at end inspiration? If yes, what can be done to mitigate risk of pneumothorax in this case? To be clear, I mean _only_ the lung tip seem to get close to pleural line/chest wall not the entire lung.
Hi on the point where you are describing how to look for the common bile duct. I have ever tried it but when u put color doppler how come the Cbd also responds to color.
I get this done every 2-3 weeks. A time consuming but relatively painless procedure to endure. This was very well explained and professionally performed.
