About

The most common thorax Computed tomography (CT) findings are multifocal ground-glass opacities and peripheral consolidation in patients with COVID-19. Septal thickening, bronchiectasis, pleural thickening, and subpleural involvement may also be observed. Although these findings are not specific to COVID-19, the severity of pulmonary involvement is expected to be correlated with thorax CT findings.

Full description

Thorax computed tomography severity score defined by Yang et al. can be used to evaluate the severity of pulmonary involvement in COVID-19 patients. We aimed to investigate whether the initial thorax computed tomography severity score can predict mechanical ventilation requirement and mortality in COVID-19 patients.
