Abstract
Background
High-resolution computed tomography (CT) is the most reliable sensitive
noninvasive imaging procedure recommended in the diagnosis, assessment, the
severity, and follow-up of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
It has a qualitative and quantitative role. The COVID-19 Reporting and Data
System evaluates the probability of COVID-19 pulmonary involvement, and the
corresponding CT severity score, which evaluates the approximate percentage of
each of the five lobes’ involvement.
Research question
We aimed to illustrate chest CT typical and atypical manifestations in COVID-19
patients regarding their age, sex, patients’ symptoms, and CT severity score.
Study design and methods
We conducted a cross-sectional study on 120 patients more than or equal to
18 years with confirmed COVID-19 infection (PCR positive) during the period from
April 2021 to October 2021, who were admitted to Ain Shams University Isolation
Hospitals, where all patients’ clinical data and CT chest imaging for these patients
will be collected
