The role of chest imaging in the diagnosis, management, and monitoring of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
Open accessAbstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has posed a major public health crisis all over the world. The role of chest imaging, especially computed tomography (CT), has evolved during the pandemic paralleling the accumulation of scientific evidence. In the early stage of the pandemic, the performance of chest imaging for COVID-19 has widely been debated especially in the context of comparison to real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Current evidence is against the use of chest imaging for routine screening of COVID-19 contrary to the initial expectations. It still has an integral role to play, however, in its work up and staging, especially when assessing complications or disease progression. Chest CT is gold standard imaging modality for COVID-19 pneumonia; in some situations, chest X-ray or ultrasound may be an effective alternative. The most important role of radiologists in this context is to be able to identify those patients at greatest risk of imminent clinical decompensation by learning to stratify cases of COVID-19 on the basis of radiologic imaging in the most efficient and timely fashion possible. The present availability of multiple and more refined CT grading systems and classification is now making this task easier and thereby contributing to the recent improvements achieved in COVID-19 treatment and outcomes. In this article, evidence of chest imaging regarding diagnosis, management and monitoring of COVID-19 will be chronologically reviewed.

Improving chest diagnostics and lung cancer detection are national priorities due to high rates of late-stage lung cancer diagnosis.
“Improving chest diagnostics and lung cancer detection are national priorities due to high rates of late-stage lung cancer diagnosis,3 and efficient chest diagnostics may be central to managing any future respiratory disease pandemic.19”
From Procurement and early deployment of artificial intelligence tools for chest diagnostics in NHS services in England: a rapid, mixed method evaluation (2025) · cites this paper as [19]
Citation 19 attaches to the sentence’s second clause, not the national-priorities claim cited to reference 3. The paper’s Key points and Controversy of chest CT versus RT-PCR sections describe roles for chest imaging in managing COVID-19, including assessing progression and triaging patients. They do not address whether efficient chest diagnostics would be central to managing a future respiratory disease pandemic. (LLM, conf=0.82)

The Abstract describes chest imaging as integral to the work-up and staging of COVID-19, particularly for assessing complications and disease progression. The Introduction limits the review to COVID-19; the paper does not establish that chest diagnostics will be key to managing any future respiratory disease pandemic. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
