What is a differential diagnosis of this condition?
Any atypical pneumonia including COVID-19 pneumonia.
Findings:
Quality: no artefacts
coronary sclerosis, mild aortic sclerosis
no significant mediastinal lymphadenopathy
Pulmonary findings:
- extensive patchy bilateral multi-lobar ground-glass opacities (GGO)
- predominantly peripheral distribution in the left lung, peripheral and central distribution in the right lung
- partial consolidations along the bronchovasular bundles surrounded by ground-glass opacities (GGO)
- superimposed inter-and intralobular septal thickening (crazy-paving pattern) in the right lower lobe
- bilateral vascular dilatation
Additional findings:
- pulmonary nodule (18mm) in the anteromedial segment of the left lower lobe
- no pleural effusions
Impression:
Findings are compatible with atypical pneumonia.
In view of the patient's symptoms and the current COVID-19 pandemic, this is indicative of COVID-19 pneumonia.
