Pleural fluid (pleural effusion): Estimate the amount of pleural fluid, determine its properties, and observe the presence of parcels, multifamily, and fibrosis. 5. Mediastinal space-occupying lesions: Understand the size, morphology, internal structure of the lesions, and the shape and relationship of adjacent large vessels. 6.
