Abstract

Background: Coronaviruses are a large family of RNA viruses, which range from the common cold virus to the causative agent of more severe diseases. Coronavirus was declared a pandemic in December 2019 inWuhan, China. Iran has been an endemic zone for the spread of the Coronavirus since the outset of this global epidemic and has remained among the countries largely affected by high rates of the disease. Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the range of the chest computed tomography (CT) scan findings among the hospitalized patients with COVID-19 in Kermanshah, Iran during March-April 2020 to contribute to the accurate diagnosis of the infected patients. Methods: The sample population consisted of 286 hospitalized patients diagnosed with or suspected of the Coronavirus disease. Chest CT-scan images and clinical data were reviewed, and their correlation was analyzed. Results: In total, 176 patients (61. 53%) were male, and 110 (38. 47%) were female. Themeanage of the patients was 56 years. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) results showed that 35. 31% of the cases had Coronavirus, while the results were negative in 64. 69% of the cases. In addition, the CT-scan findings indicated 77. 27% abnormaland22. 73% normal Chest CT-scans. Amongthe patients, 75. 87% recovered completely, and 18. 53% died. The major CT abnormalities were diffuse ground-glass opacification (35. 66%), peripheral ground-glass opacification (bilateral; 21. 33%), and a combination of diffuse and peripheral ground-glass lesions (18. 88%). The consolidation lesion of one lobe was detected in 16 patients, and the consolidation lesion of more than one lobe was observed in 40 patients. Conclusions: According to the results, the mostcommonChest CT-scan findings in COVID-19 include diffuse ground-glass opacification, peripheral ground-glass opacification (bilateral), central ground-glass opacification (bilateral), a combination of diffuse and peripheral ground-glass opacification, a combination of central and peripheral ground-glass opacification, the consolidation lesion of one lobe, and the consolidation lesion of more than one lobe. Furthermore, significant correlations were observed between the CT-scans and the main clinical symptoms, while no significant correlations were denoted between the Chest CT-scan and PCR results.
