[[File:Lung and diaphragm.jpg|thumb|Lobes of the lung with related anatomy.]]
*Use linear probe
**Can use curvilinear or phased array probe, but will need to decrease depth
*Place the probe vertically (marker toward head) over the 2nd intercostal space at the midclavicular line
*Adjust your view in order to see a rib on each side of the screen (designated by rib shadow)
*Look between the ribs for "lung sliding"
**To document sliding on a single image, use M mode ("waves on a beach")
*Can continue to evaluate each intercostal space for sliding if needed
