Evaluation of lungs via ultrasound

Systems and methods are provided for evaluating a lung via ultrasound. A plurality of ultrasound images are generated at each of a plurality of locations on a lung using an ultrasound imager to provide a plurality of images. Respective grades are assigned to each of the plurality of images according to an amount of B-line artifact in the image to generate a plurality of grades for the lung. A composite score for the lung is calculated from the plurality of grades. The composite score represents a general assessment of the lung. The composite score is provided to a user at an associated output device.
