Article Synopsis
- A significant percentage (16-66%) of COVID-19 patients experience abdominal symptoms, which are often detected through CT scans, but the effectiveness of these scans in diagnosing related issues is unclear.*
-
- This study reviewed data from COVID-19 patients who underwent abdominal CT scans to identify imaging signs of the virus and associated conditions, specifically COVID-19 associated Mucormycosis (CAM), including demographics and lab results.*
-
- Results showed that a majority of patients had abdominal abnormalities, particularly in the hepatobiliary and bowel areas, and there was a correlation between CT severity scores, abdominal symptoms, and elevated D-dimer levels, especially in patients needing ICU care.*
