Dr. Somali Nguyen explains how to perform a basic airway ultrasound using a high-frequency linear probe for detailed superficial imaging. He demonstrates two key views: the transverse view, with the probe indicator pointing toward the patient’s right side, and the sagittal view, rotated 90 degrees to align with the head. By scanning up and down over the airway in both orientations, clinicians can assess for structural issues or abnormalities. The lecture offers a straightforward approach to integrating ultrasound into airway evaluation.
