Comparison between thoracic ultrasound and chest x‐ray in detection of non‐infective early complications of cardiac implantable electronic devices implantation ( <scp>CRUSADERS</scp> study)
TUS has a non-inferior diagnostic power compared to the CXR to detect early mechanical complications of CIED implantation, avoiding x-ray exposure. Our results suggest that TUS could be employed as a primary technique in association with standard electrical control to diagnose postoperative complications.
