Diagnostic accuracy of the global lung ultrasound (LUS) score and the LUS–ARDS score for severe pulmonary edema. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves for the prediction of severe pulmonary edema (extravascular lung water index > 15 ml/kg) by the global LUS score and the LUS–ARDS score. Comparison of the areas under the ROC curves (AUROCC) using the De Long test showed no statistically significant difference between the AUROCCs of the global LUS and LUS–ARDS score (p = 0.34), the global LUS and the anterior–lateral LUS score (p = 0.70) and the LUS–ARDS and the anterior–LUS score (p = 0.56)
