Title: Optimizing diagnostic strategy for novel coronavirus pneumonia, a multi-center study in Eastern China Document date: 2020_2_17
ID: nqxo3f45_17
Snippet: Our study enrolled 53 patients with suspected NCP. Twenty patients were finally laboratoryconfirmed with NCP, among whom 14 patients were positive for the first admission SARS-COV-2 RT-PCR, 3 patients turned to positive in the second test after the first negative result. Three other patients were diagnosed through mNGS while both RT-PCR reported negative ( Figure 1 Abnormalities in chest CT images were detected among all patients. According to CT.....
Document: Our study enrolled 53 patients with suspected NCP. Twenty patients were finally laboratoryconfirmed with NCP, among whom 14 patients were positive for the first admission SARS-COV-2 RT-PCR, 3 patients turned to positive in the second test after the first negative result. Three other patients were diagnosed through mNGS while both RT-PCR reported negative ( Figure 1 Abnormalities in chest CT images were detected among all patients. According to CT scan, 12 (60%) NCP patients showed bilateral pneumonia with just 8 (40%) patients showing unilateral pneumonia. Most non-NCP patients showed unilateral or bilateral patchy shadowing. TFour non-NCP and 2 NCP patients showed ground-glass opacity, respectively. CT image of other patients were subsegmental areas of consolidation. In our study, chest CT images of early stage NCP patients showed unilateral or bilateral ground glass opacity, which were similar to some non-NCP images of patients with RSV, mycoplasma and parainfluenza virus. The findings of progressive stage chest CT images were bilateral multiple lobular and subsegmental areas of consolidation ( Figure 2 ).
