Assessment for pneumothorax resolution typically involves repeat chest X-rays to evaluate the size and extent of the pneumothorax. A decrease in the size of the pneumothorax or the absence of any air in the pleural space on imaging suggests resolution. Clinical evaluation, such as monitoring for resolution of symptoms and signs like chest pain and shortness of breath, is also important in assessing pneumothorax resolution.
