Green cells are cells with κ ≥ 0.60, yellow cells where 0.20≤ κ < 0.60, red for cells with κ < 0.20.

a

Comet tail was defined as either large B‐lines or small comet‐tails artifacts.

b

Pleural fluid detection was considered positive if ≥0.5cm of fluid was detected.

c

Consolidation was considered positive if ≥3cm lung consolidation was detected.
