Figure 1 Standard chest X-ray and pulmonary computed tomography in a patient during early–stage and during the first week of coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia.
A, B: Presymptomatic phase: Few areas of hyperdensity with ground glass on computed tomography, mainly in the lower and posterior fields; C, D: First week of symptoms: Bilateral ground glass opacities more confluent on computed tomography.
Figure 2 Standard chest X-ray and pulmonary computed tomography in a patient during the second week of severe coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia.
Figure 3 Correlations between bedside lung ultrasound and pulmonary computed tomography during the different phases of coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia.
Figure 4 Standard echocardiography in a patient with coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia and right ventricular impairment.
A: In apical four-chamber view, mild right ventricular dilatation; B: Mild tricuspid regurgitation; C: With moderate impairment of right ventricular function with reduced tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion; D: Increase in pulmonary pressures.
Figure 5 Standard echocardiography, lung ultrasound and pulmonary computed tomography in a patient with coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia.
A: In apical four-chamber view, mild right ventricular dilatation; B: With increase in pulmonary pressures; C: By lung ultrasound; D: Pulmonary computed tomography ground glass with presence of consolidation areas.
