Peripheral subpleural ground glass densities, including the lower and upper lobes. Consolidation, small nodular density and interlobular/lobular septal thickening are observed in some areas. Slight thickening of the bronchial walls.
Several mediastinal lymphadenopathies, the largest 1 cm.
Case Discussion
The patient was PCR confirmed COVID-19.
Chest CT findings of COVID-19 pneumonia in the literature are generally in the form of peripheral subpleural ground glass densities, typically with a basal predominance. Although there are regions of infection throughout the lungs in this case, they are still classic/typical for COVID-19.
