Pulmonary tomographic and ultrasound findings in two patients diagnosed with SARS CoV-2 pneumonia at the time of admission to an intensive care unit are shown. Evaluation of the Six quadrant (Figure 1) for each hemithorax or Lung Ultrasound Score was used as a follow-up method, scored according to the ultrasound pattern: A lines (0 points), B lines (1 point), coalescent B lines: white lung (2 points), consolidation (3 points). The total score will be the sum of the two hemithoraxes.
