It has become an increasingly important tool for diagnosing and monitoring respiratory diseases, including in pediatric populations. The recent COVID\u201019 pandemic had created unprecedented challenges in respiratory diagnosis and care, accelerating the use of LUS as a rapid, practical, and safe examination method, particularly suitable for children. This scoping review aims to map and synthesize evidence on the use of LUS in pediatric COVID\u201019, identify research gaps, and inform future studies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review will be conducted in accordance with JBI methodological guidance for scoping reviews and reported by following the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta\u2010analyses extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA\u2010ScR) checklist. Our strategy will search on major databases, including MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and CINAHL, and gray literatures resources. Assessment of the studies will be performed by two independent reviewers against the inclusion criteria. Eligible studies will include pediatric populations (&lt;\u200918 years) with suspected, confirmed, or recovered COVID\u201019, assessing LUS for respiratory evaluation. Studies of any design, language, and methodological quality published from December 2019 onward will be considered. Data will be extracted and synthesized in line with scoping review methodology.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Evidence will be synthesized using a primarily deductive approach with inductive flexibility to identify emerging themes, including clinical applications of LUS, protocols of imaging acquisition and interpretation, and study designs.
