Pulmonary radiological patterns in patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia UdeGuanajuato pulmonary radiology SARSCoV2 COVID19 coronavirus covid pneumonia
By Dr. Priyom Bose, Ph.D.Oct 11 2022Reviewed by Danielle Ellis, B.Sc. In 2019, a novel coronavirus, namely, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 , was linked to several cases of pneumonia. The rapid spread of this virus caused the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Even today, there is no specific treatment for SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Furthermore, this study aimed to determine mortality at 30 days in this group of patients, along with patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and those suffering from different levels of lung disease. The blinded radiological classification was used to classify CT scans indicative of COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 infection. The tomographic findings were categorized as ground-glass pattern, presence of ganglia, consolidation pattern, vascular thickening pattern, nodular pattern, and presence of thrombosis.
A previously conducted comparative study reported that tomographic findings related to viral pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 infection exhibited a greater incidence of peripheral lesions, presence of fine reticular opacities, ground-glass opacities, vascular thickening pattern, compared to non-COVID-19 infection. In contrast, pleural effusion, central and peripheral distribution, and lymphadenopathies were more frequently found in non-COVID-19 than SARS-CoV-2 infection.
