T3 0-379 Sentence denotes In this issue of the Korean Journal of Radiology (KJR), Lin et al. (1), while reporting computed tomography (CT) findings of two cases of the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV or officially named by the World Health Organization as COVID-19) pneumonia, demonstrated that multiple areas of patchy consolidation and ground-glass opacity (GGO) are main CT findings of the infection.
T4 380-513 Sentence denotes The lesions in their cases were typically distributed along the bronchovascular bundles or subpleural regions in the bilateral lungs.
T5 514-661 Sentence denotes Similarly, in a recent report published in the Radiology, Chung et al. (2) described CT findings of 2019-nCoV pneumonia in 21 symptomatic patients.
T6 662-752 Sentence denotes Representative CT findings included bilateral pulmonary parenchymal GGO and consolidation.
T7 753-864 Sentence denotes Notably, cavitary lung lesions, discrete pulmonary nodules, pleural effusions, and lymphadenopathy were absent.
T8 865-1022 Sentence denotes Follow-up CT in a subset of patients demonstrated mild or moderate disease progression, as manifested by the increasing extent and density of lung opacities.
T9 1023-1101 Sentence denotes CT findings of viral pneumonia in immunocompetent adults have been well known.
T10 1102-1362 Sentence denotes Although the findings overlap among various pneumonias caused by diverse viral organisms, CT features include poorly defined centrilobular nodules, GGO with a lobular distribution, segmental consolidation, and diffuse GGO with thickened interlobular septa (3).
T11 1363-1424 Sentence denotes Pleural effusion or necrotic lung abnormality is rarely seen.
T12 1425-1609 Sentence denotes Particularly, in severe acute respiratory syndrome, for which corona viruses are also being implicated, common CT features are GGO and lower lobe and peripheral lung distributions (4).
T13 1610-1807 Sentence denotes In middle-east respiratory syndrome (MERS) caused by coronavirus infection, bilateral subpleural and lower lung zone-predominant GGO and consolidation were the most commonly observed findings (56).
T14 1808-1900 Sentence denotes The main role of imaging in viral infection lies in the detection or exclusion of pneumonia.
T15 1901-2109 Sentence denotes Other roles include narrowing down of the differential diagnosis of pneumonia with respect to the involved causative organisms in consideration of the patterns, distribution, and extent of lung abnormalities.
T16 2110-2158 Sentence denotes Further diagnostic approaches may be clued into.
T17 2159-2247 Sentence denotes The response to antibiotic therapy may be evaluated using follow-up imaging studies (7).
T18 2248-2472 Sentence denotes Particularly with the pattern approach, viral pneumonia in an immunocompetent cohort can be further divided into three patterns, namely, bilateral bronchopneumonia, organizing pneumonia, and diffuse alveolar damage patterns.
T19 2473-2588 Sentence denotes With this approach, patient management (necessitating ventilation support) and prognostication could be determined.
T20 2589-2711 Sentence denotes Kang et al. (8) evaluated chest CT findings of influenza A pneumonia and correlated the results with the clinical outcome.
T21 2712-3006 Sentence denotes They classified CT findings of pneumonias into organizing pneumonia, diffuse alveolar damage, and bronchopneumonia patterns and concluded that patients presenting with the diffuse alveolar damage pattern tend to show a poor prognosis and need ventilation therapy in the intensive care unit (8).
T22 3007-3188 Sentence denotes In cases of MERS, the mean number of lung segments involved was higher in the mortality group than in the recovered group, and pleural effusion correlated with a poor prognosis (9).
T23 3189-3405 Sentence denotes Although CT findings of 2019-nCoV pneumonia were well described in the current study (1) and in the study by Chung et al. (2), the authors did not depict the detailed distribution or the extent of lung abnormalities.
T24 3406-3595 Sentence denotes With a detailed analysis, authors could have drawn specific patterns of lung abnormalities, including organizing pneumonia, bilateral bronchopneumonia, and diffuse alveolar damage patterns.
T25 3596-3685 Sentence denotes If such a pattern could have been drawn, the patient prognosis could have been predicted.
