The clip was captured in rural Uganda on a patient who presented for weight loss, night sweats, and cough. Utilizing the high-frequency, linear transducer the patient’s thoracic pleura and superficial lung were evaluated. The ultrasound demonstrated multiple focal sub-pleural lesions with tripartite B-lines consistent with miliary tuberculosis. Michael Schick DO, MA Emergency Medicine Physician
