INTRODUCTION: Lower respiratory tract infections are one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in children. Chest X-Rays, which are frequently used in the diagnosis, cause ionizing radiation exposure and loss of time. We aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of chest radiography (CR) and lung ultrasonography (US) in patients with lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI).
