Overview
CT
Despite the increasing number of publications on MERS infection, the description of chest CT image findings is scarce. In MERS patients, chest CT images have shown bilateral patchy opacities, also described as extensive opacities. In critically ill patients, CT image findings were noticed to be compatible with the ones from ARDS patients.[1][2][3]
