Overview
An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of COVID-19 infection. Findings of chest x-ray can be consistent with the disease severity and time of presentation. Chest X-ray findings of COVID-19 may be normal in early/mild disease. Findings are most extensive about 10-12 days after symptom onset. The most frequent findings are consolidation. The distribution is most often bilateral, peripheral, and lower zone predominant. In contrast to parenchymal disease, pleural effusion is rare.
