Valoración tomográfica inicial en pacientes con neumonía por COVID-19 en el Hospital Central de la Fuerza Aérea del Perú: serie de casos

We present nine cases of COVID-19 patients that developed pneumonia caused by SARSCov-2 who were seen in the Peruvian Central Air Force Hospital and showed different clinical features, risk factors, and outcomes. Findings of their thorax CT scans are described using a tomographic score that was applied on admission. Points assigned were based on the percentage of involvement on each pulmonary lobe and this allowed us to determine a clinical diagnosis of pneumonia according to its severity, even before having positive results in molecular and serological tests for some of these patients.
