Abstract: We describe here the Chest CT imaging features of a 68-year-old man presenting with fever (37.5 ℃), malaise, dyspnea and persistent dry cough for 7 days. The patient was seen by his GP, then sent to us for a CT and treated as a suspect even before exam execution, with all PPE and safety measures adequately put in place. Chest CT showed strikingly remarkable signs of interstitial pneumonia, compatible with COVID-19.
