Influence of dynamic range on the number of B-lines identified (asterisk). In the bigger lung ultrasound image, more B-lines can be detected when using a dynamic range of 102 dB, compared to the smaller image at the inferior right corner, which was recorded using a dynamic range of 60 dB (four vs two B-lines)
