COVID-19: CT Findings

[@saptarshibhattacharya]

I live in an area where Covid positivity rate is 0.56% with an estimated CFR of 1.02%. Symptoms experienced by me: Fever, Cough, Ageusia, Parosmia, Diarrhea, skin rash, hypoxia with cyanosis. My RTPCR came back negative. HRCT scan showed diffuse bilateral ground glass opacities mostly on the lower lobe and peribronchial distribution. It also showed a thin layer of pneumothorax with multiple lung nodules. Can it be covid 19 pneumonia?

[@CarolynAOdell]

I was wondering if anyone is doing post covid19 studies to see if there is lasting damage to lungs?

[@mirianliz3843]

Is it possible to see the ground glass opacity in the chest x ray?

[@RadiologyEducation]

It is possible to see the ground glass opacity on the chest x-ray. However chest x-ray has not shown to be sensitive for ground glass opacities. Therefore in many cases the chest x-ray will be normal and a concomitant chest CT can be abnormal

Thanks for this nice and descriptive presentation 🌼 But, i have some questions: 1- can ct be considered as a prognostic tool ? Many patients show complete remission of symptoms and turn -ve for pcr; yet their ct findings remain present And so the question is can we discharge the patient in these circumstances? 2- on the other hand, many patients demonstrate +ve pcr with -ve symptoms and -ve ct findings Is there a possibility that ct findings may be delayed ? And so the question is do i need to repeat the ct? And after how much time? And how frequent? 3- many patients with typical ct findings, doing it initially for reassurance, have actually no symptoms at all, no signs, no lab evidence of infection and even -ve pcr for covid-19 And the question is does ct be considered as an evidence to start isolation ? Or treatment? Thanks so much 😊

How do we treat these Ground Glass Opacities

So nice information..great thanks

Very useful educational and more illustrated findigs of COVID 19 CTs

[@loganathanpr8331]

Ihave seen in ct impression is a few faces of ogg in peripheral of both lower respiratory lung loap.ct take n on14/7/20 immediately they have started Dexamethasone injection one's a day with ceftrioxone 1gm twice a day for 5days.day 3 is completed.followed by Azthiromycin 500mg one's daily for 10 days.some time dry cough is coming.please suggest shall I go for further treatment or that is enough.from india

Is there a publicly available CT image of the cvoid-19 virus infection? Could some images be shared with me.

[@genesisnova9863]

you alright?

[@genesisnova9863]

if you suspect you have it try eating things with potassium. that is what i have been doing, idk if it will help me alot. but i have seen that hypokalemia is one of the cases of death of corona virus. meaning low potassium in the body.

Well done sir from india

[@User24-g7]

Theoretically, could a patient test positive for flu and covid-19 concurrently?

[@RadiologyEducation]

Yes they could.

[@sbhall01]

I have read that 20-25% of patients may have a coexistent infection with COVID

[@ChiDraconis]

@@HaceSunnyDSol I have bottom-crawled the looniest theories I can find with the result the study of what WHO has already up on it lends credence to your speculation;

[@venkatramesh007]

of course they could

[@anilgopinath7030]

Wonderful images and great summary. Thanks

[@karenperezalfonso3624]

Very educational and useful. Thank you!

[@amandafox7721]

Would you have any early chest x-ray imaging education?

[@RadiologyEducation]

I do have some chest x-ray imaging, however it is not specific or sensitive for the findings of viral pneumonia. It is therefore not very helpful in terms of educational value.

[@RadiologyEducation]

I do have multiple screencasts that cover general chest x-ray and chest CT radiologist. Look under my playlists for the one of Chest imagin

My dad tested positive for covid after doing hrct ...I'm worrying about him ...

[@AlexDiamantopulo]

How's your dad today? Was it rough?

[@danielpitti6640]

Good and concise information. Thank you!

[@mandieromesberg8016]

Very informative. Nice Presentation.

[@dr.surinderaggarwal1987]

Very informative

[@sainehru933]

All covid tested positive patients at early stage will have same ground glass opacities by doing hrct ?

Great piece, Joey

On 4/6 Tested negative to covid Lung X-ray -said no pneumonia But this was my ct scan result LUNGS AND PLEURA: No pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Mild basal
atelectasis. Irregular/spiculated consolidative opacities in the medial
right upper lobe abutting the medial pleural surface measuring
approximately 3.6 cm on axial image 30. There is mild surrounding
groundglass. Minimal patchy groundglass and the lateral right upper lobe
on axial image 36.
