Figure 9. COVID-19, Radiological and Pathological Findings of the Lungs [46]: A, Transverse thin-section computed tomographic scan of a 76-year-old man, 5 days after symptom onset, showing sub pleural ground-glass opacity and consolidation with subpleural sparing. B, Transverse thin-section computed tomographic scan of a 76-year-old man, 21 days after symptom onset, showing bilateral and peripheral predominant consolidation, ground-glass with reticulation, and bronchodilatation. C, Pathological manifestations of lung tissue in a patient with severe pneumonia caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) showing interstitial mononuclear inflammatory infiltrates dominated by lymphocytes (magnification, ×10). D, Pathological manifestations of lung tissue in a patient with severe pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 showing diffuse alveolar damage with edema and fibrine deposition, indicating acute respiratory distress syndrome with early fibrosis (magnification, ×10).
