    Snippet: The sensitivity of chest CT imaging in patients with COVID-19 was 99% using RT-PCR results as reference. Therefore, CT scan can be useful in the diagnosis for people with COVID-19. However, the sensitivity of CT in children was 66%, which is much lower than it in general population. The most common imaging manifestation of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 was GGO with bilateral peripheral distribution. The quality of evidence for almost all find.....
    Document: The sensitivity of chest CT imaging in patients with COVID-19 was 99% using RT-PCR results as reference. Therefore, CT scan can be useful in the diagnosis for people with COVID-19. However, the sensitivity of CT in children was 66%, which is much lower than it in general population. The most common imaging manifestation of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 was GGO with bilateral peripheral distribution. The quality of evidence for almost all findings in our study was low. Viral nucleic acid detection using RT-PCR is the gold standard in the diagnosis of COVID-19. However, some studies (22, 23) reported that some patients had negative RT-PCR results, while their CT imaging features were abnormal. Several studies (24, 25) have compared the diagnostic accuracy of chest CT scan and RT-PCR and found that the sensitivity of CT was All rights reserved.
