Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effectiveness of chest CT scans in diagnosing COVID-19 among patients who are mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic, revealing that 48.46% of the analyzed cases showed positive features for the virus.
- A significant correlation was found between positive CT findings and specific symptoms, with anosmia and dyspnea being notably linked, as well as a higher likelihood of detecting COVID-19 features after three days of symptom onset.
- The research suggests that chest HRCT is a valuable, noninvasive screening tool, even for patients showing mild symptoms or none at all, underscoring its potential in COVID-19 detection during the pandemic.
