Lung ultrasound has the potential to enable standardized follow‐up without radiation exposure and with lower associated costs in comparison to CT scans. It is a valuable tool to follow up on patients after a COVID‐19 infection and evaluate if there is pulmonary fibrosis developing. Echocardiography, including strain imaging, is a proven tool to assess various causes of dyspnea and adds valuable information in the context of long COVID care. Including two‐dimensional (2D) strain imaging, a better comprehension of myocardial damage in post‐COVID syndrome can be made. Especially 2D strain imaging (left and the right ventricular strain) can provide information about prognosis. |
