Chest ultrasound linear multi-frequency probe (a, b) with schematic representation (c, d) and chest X-ray (e) in patient affected by respiratory distress syndrome: on the left (a) inhomogeneous consolidation (c transparent blue areas) adhered to the pleura with multiple B-lines in “coalescence aspect” (c circled area); on the right (b) multiple small consolidation (d blue areas) closely connected to the pleura in aspiration pneumonia (milk) with shred sign (d circled area). Chest X-ray shows extensive opacity in right lower filed (e blue box) related to aspiration pneumonia (milk) in Down syndrome
