Accuracy and Reproducibility of Low-Dose Submillisievert Chest CT for the Diagnosis of COVID-19 |pdf=|usr=}}{{33778576}} gab.com Text Accuracy and Reproducibility of Low-Dose Submillisievert Chest CT for the Diagnosis of COVID-19 JO: Radiol Cardiothorac Imaging http://www.kidney.de/pget.php?&tw=1&pmid=33778576 #FOAvip Purpose: To demonstrate the accuracy and reproducibility of low-dose submillisievert chest CT for the diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection in patients in the emergency department. Materials and Methods: This was a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act?compliant, institutional review board?approved retrospective study. From March 14 to 24, 2020, 192 patients in the emergency department with symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 infection were studied by using low-dose chest CT and real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Image analysis included the likelihood of COVID-19 infection and the semiquantitative extent of lung involvement. CT images were analyzed by two radiologists blinded to the RT-PCR results. Reproducibility was assessed using the McNemar test and intraclass correlation coefficient. Time between CT acquisition and report was measured. Results: When compared with RT-PCR, low-dose submillisievert chest CT demonstrated excellent sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy for diagnosis of COVID-19 (86.7%, 93.6%, 91.1%, 90.3%, and 90.2%, respectively), in particular in patients with clinical symptoms for more than 48 hours (95.6%, 93.2%, 91.5%, 96.5%, and 94.4%, respectively). In patients with a positive CT result, the likelihood of disease increased from 43.2% (pretest probability) to 91.1% or 91.4% (posttest probability), while in patients with a negative CT result, the likelihood of disease decreased to 9.6% or 3.7% for all patients or those with clinical symptoms for >48 hours. The prevalence of alternative diagnoses based on chest CT in patients without COVID-19 infection was 17.6%. The mean effective radiation dose was 0.56 mSv ± 0.25 (standard deviation). Median time between CT acquisition and report was 25 minutes (interquartile range: 13?49 minutes). Intra- and interreader reproducibility of CT was excellent (all intraclass correlation coefficients ? 0.95) without significant bias in the Bland-Altman analysis. Conclusion: Low-dose submillisievert chest CT allows for rapid, accurate, and reproducible assessment of COVID-19 infection in patients in the emergency department, in particular in patients with symptoms lasting longer than 48 hours. Chest CT has the additional advantage of offering alternative diagnoses in a significant subset of patients.© RSNA, 2020 Twit Text FOAVip Accuracy and Reproducibility of Low-Dose Submillisievert Chest CT for the Diagnosis of COVID-19 ????Radiol Cardiothorac Imaging http://www.kidney.de/pget.php?&tw=1&pmid=33778576 #FOAvip Twit Text # Free Paper on # # # # # LINK http://www.kidney.de/pget.php?&tw=1&pmid=33778576 #FOAvip English Wikipedia <ref>{{Cite pmid|33778576}}</ref> Accuracy and Reproducibility of Low-Dose Submillisievert Chest CT for the Diagnosis of COVID-19 #MMPMID33778576 Dangis A; Gieraerts C; De Bruecker Y; Janssen L; Valgaeren H; Obbels D; Gillis M; Van Ranst M; Frans J; Demeyere A; Symons R Radiol Cardiothorac Imaging 2020[Apr]; 2 (2): ä PMID33778576show ga Purpose: To demonstrate the accuracy and reproducibility of low-dose submillisievert chest CT for the diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection in patients in the emergency department.
