Furthermore‚ it is less technically demanding as compared to other sonographic examinations‚ and it is demonstrated that beginners with approximately 7 hours of training were able to obtain high sensitivity (98%) and specificity (95%). Although the study conducted by Pereda showed high sensitivity and high specificity‚ the study was performed in a single centre. Therefore‚ narrowing the external validity of findings‚ increasing the bias. Furthermore‚ according to Eisen et al. (2010)‚ LUS is a newly developed
