Objective: Distinguishing post-COVID-19 residual abnormalities from interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) on CT can be challenging if clinical information is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of radiologists in distinguishing post-COVID-19 residual abnormalities from ILA.
Methods: This multi-reader, multi-case study included 60 age- and sex-matched subjects with chest CT scans.
Fibrotic lung diseases (FLDs) represent a subgroup of interstitial lung diseases (ILDs), which can progress over time and carry a poor prognosis. Imaging has increased diagnostic discrimination in the evaluation of FLDs. International guidelines have stated the role of radiologists in the diagnosis and management of FLDs, in the context of the interdisciplinary discussion.

Mechanically assisted and noninvasive ventilation (MANIV) could ensure the target repositioning accuracy during each BH while facilitating treatment feasibility through oxygen supplementation and a perfectly replicated mechanical support. However, there is currently no clinical evidence substantiating the use of MANIV-induced BH for moving tumors.

Our aim is to describe this unusual condition and its treatment.
Patients And Methods: This monocentric retrospective study reports six cases of severe organizing pneumonia that developed during the clinical course of protracted COVID-19.
