Chest CT for Post-COVID-19 Abnormalities: Nine Takeaways from a Multi-Society Consensus Statement

Chest CT for Post-COVID-19 Abnormalities: Nine Takeaways from a Multi-Society Consensus Statement

Publication date: Jul 23, 2025

When structural abnormalities on CT cannot fully explain a patients respiratory symptoms, the consensus authors suggest employing contrast-enhanced CT pulmonary angiography. 9. The consensus authors suggest the use of standard CT radiation dosing when patients have had respiratory changes, particularly acute changes. 7. For this patient population, the consensus authors said fibrosis should be reserved for describing persistently present traction bronchiectasis, honeycombing and/or architectural distortion with volume loss. 6. For image reconstruction, the consensus authors emphasize thin-section images of < 1. 5 mm with continuous or overlapping sections. (Images courtesy of Radiology. )3.
