Bar code sign in an adult. M-mode point-of-care ultrasound. Numerous horizontal lines are seen both above and below the pleural line (between large yellow arrows). This is known as the bar code sign (stratosphere sign), which suggests the absence of lung sliding and the fact that the lung is not ventilated. Artifact created by the heart beat is detected at constant intervals (small yellow arrows).
