Series of follow-up CTs of a 40-year-old woman with COVID-19 who caught a fever on January 19, 2020 and was admitted at hospital on January 27, 2020. (A) Initial chest CT on January 22 (3 days after symptoms onset) showed sporadic GGO in bilateral lower lobes. (B–E) Two days later, consolidation appeared. Whereafter, the extent of GGO and consolidation enlarged, and reached its peak on February 11, and remained the peak level until February 20. (F,G) At the recovery stage, lesions were gradually absorbed. (H) On May 14 (116 days after symptoms onset), most consolidations were absorbed, while irregular interfaces and parenchymal bands were observed as evidence of fibrotic change (yellow arrow). COVID-19, coronavirus disease 2019; GGO, ground-glass opacity.
