Radiologists distinguish COVID-19 pneumonia on CT
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is characterized by CT findings that match features of other pneumonia-causing viruses. But radiologists from the U.S. and China demonstrated that they are well-equipped to differentiate COVID-19 from these other viruses in a new study, published online March 10 in Radiology.

3 factors linked to risk of death from coronavirus
For individuals with the novel coronavirus disease, several factors were associated with an increased risk of death in a new study, published online March 9 in the Lancet journal. Careful observation and blood testing could help clinicians identify these individuals at an early stage, researchers say.

CT findings for coronavirus may overlap with adenovirus
Chest CT accurately detected the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the vast majority of high-risk individuals prior to confirmation by laboratory testing, though it also misidentified COVID-19 for the adenovirus in a small percentage of cases in a new study, published online March 4 in the American Journal of Roentgenology.

Low-dose CT produces no detectable DNA damage
The debate over the potential harms of CT radiation carries on in a new study published online March 10 in Radiology. Researchers from Japan are reporting that they found no evidence of DNA damage in individuals who underwent low-dose CT scans -- while damage was detectable from standard-dose exams.
