Non-contrast axial CT of the chest of a 45-year-old male patient with positive RT-PCR. Bilateral ground-glass opacities are seen of mainly peripheral distribution (a–c). The patient had a high D-dimer level. Thus, CT pulmonary angiography was done (d, e), revealing right descending pulmonary arterial thromboembolism (arrows). 3D reconstruction volume rendering image shows pulmonary involvement as opaque non-transparent shadows (f). CT severity score is 15 points which corresponds to moderate involvement. The patient received anticoagulant treatment and improved on follow-up
