    Snippet: In positive group, our study shows that GGO is the basic manifestation in CT imaging of COVID-19, followed by consolidation, crazy-paving pattern and air bronchogram. Lesions were mainly distributed bilaterally, close to lower lungs or the pleura. These findings are similar to those in previous descriptive researches on 10, 13, 14] , which also overlapped with imaging of other viral pneumonias.

    Document: In positive group, our study shows that GGO is the basic manifestation in CT imaging of COVID-19, followed by consolidation, crazy-paving pattern and air bronchogram. Lesions were mainly distributed bilaterally, close to lower lungs or the pleura. These findings are similar to those in previous descriptive researches on 10, 13, 14] , which also overlapped with imaging of other viral pneumonias. For reason that we estimated pathological mechanism of COVID-19 as it might transmit though respiratory tract and damage terminal bronchioles and lung parenchyma near bronchiolar in the early stages, then in turn affect the entire lung lobules and diffuse alveolar damage like other viral pneumonias [15] . Apparently, it has more resemblances to the imaging of SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) and MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome), which also belongs to coronavirus [16] [17] [18] [19] .
