“…CT angiography uses a radioactive contrast agent by intravenous injection into the arm to visualise blood vessels, including imaging the artery that transports blood from the heart to the lungs (pulmonary artery). Currently, CT angiography is usually used instead of nuclear lung imaging to diagnose blood clots in the pulmonary artery (pulmonary embolism) (Hofer, 2007;Salvatore et al, 2018).…”

“…CT scan for lung use high-resolution that shows more details of lung disorders, chronic lung infections, Pneumonia, lung tumours, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary contraction, and others. A CT scan could be viewed on a computer in two or three-dimensional, and radiographic image technologies are easy to use on a computer (Hofer, 2007;Salvatore et al, 2018). There are 6, 790, 496 confirmed cases of the new crown virus worldwide, including 396, 267 deaths, and disease outbreaks in many countries and regions.…”

COVID-19 is a virus that infects the respiratory system and causes pneumonia, kidney failure, and other health issues. The purpose of early diagnosis of COVID-19 is the fastest time to keep healthy cells for patients. A check-up for COVID-19 has been performed for patients whose ages were between (85–25) years by CT scan and laboratory-analysis (PCR) and X-ray and PET/CT scan. CT scan is considered the more clear method for the early diagnosis for COVID-19 because of the production of clear radiographic image quality and high-resolution and three-dimensional of a patient’s chest in two views (anterior-posterior view and the lateral view). In addition to that, a CT scan is more readily and cheaper, and more available in the hospital, also it takes less time to check the patient’s chest.
