Agreement between clinicians assessing DWI-ASPECTS and DWI-FLAIR mismatch may not be sufficient to make repeatable clinical decisions in mechanical thrombectomy. The dichotomization of the DWI-ASPECTS (0-5 versus 0-6 or 0-6 versus 7-10) improved interrater and intrarater agreement, however, its relevance for patients selection for mechanical thrombectomy needs to be validated in a randomized trial.

As coronavirus pandemic continues to spread over the world, physicians have to be aware of atypical features of COVID-19 pneumonia. We report the case of a 78-year-old man presenting with pseudo-tumoral focal lesion of the left lung which switched shortly to severe and diffuse COVID-19 induced pneumonia. Nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists should be careful of some misleading hypermetabolic aspects mostly in asymptomatic patients.
