Objective: Determination of the importance of computed tomography in the diagnosis of pulmonary infection caused by COVID-19 infection, to compare computed tomography and computed tomography in detecting pathological changes caused by COVID-19 infection, and to prove the sensitivity and specificity of computed tomography.
Method: The results of prospective and retrospective studies were used to write this review article, by systematic selection on Internet scientific databases: PubMed, Google Scholar, Crossref.
Results: Based on a systematic review of the literature, it was established that chest CR is the first diagnostic method of choice, due to its wide availability.
Conclusion: CT is a highly sensitive diagnostic method, and is recommended for more severe stages of the disease and accelerated exacerbation of the disease, in patients with slow regression of radiographic findings and in patients recovering from COVID-19 with impaired lung function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
