Abstract:
Objective:The outbreak of COVID-19 in China has spread rapidly across the country since December 2019, the population is generally susceptible, and human-to-human transmission has gradually spread out. This article explores the value of HRCT in the diagnosis of COVID-19.Methods:This article explores the typical CT imaging findings, imaging staging, imaging diagnosis process and differential diagnosis of the COVID-19.Results:With the emergence of the classification of "clinical diagnostic cases" in Hubei Province, imaging examinations, especially HRCT, play important roles in the diagnosis of COVID-19. HRCT is helpful for early screening of suspected cases and monitoring the dynamic changes of the disease.Conclusions:HRCT will make up for missed diagnosis caused by the false negative of the viral nucleic acid detection, and empower the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia with more scientificity and effectivity.
