COVID - 19 is a 21st-century pandemic. Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus disease - COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease-19), zoonose. The virus was previously known as the 2019 novel ...coronavirus. A non-specific and most common clinical and radiological finding is pneumonia, which was called novel coronavirus-infected pneumonia (NCIP) duo to its previous virus name. Pneumonia is bilateral, peripheral localization, and basal distribution. So far, there is no specific treatment or vaccine to prevent COVID-19; all measures consist of supportive therapy. The clinical presentation varies in severity from asymptomatic to mild form of the disease, over severe forms to fatal outcomes. Depending on the stage of COVID-19, the findings obtained using radiological methods also depend. About half of the patients have a normal CT scan within the first two days of the onset of the disease. However, the occurrence of pathological findings reaches its maximum between days 9 and 13. At first, the zones of "ground glass" opacification are present, followed by the discovery of "crazy paving" , and then the development of consolidation. With the improvement of the disease, fibrosis zones occur, and the changes recede one month and beyond. Echosonography has an important place in the monitoring and management of severe patients in intensive care units, and especially in lung conditions.
Tehnološki napredak i razvoj radioloških uređaja pruža veće mogućnosti u dijagnostičkom postupku. Dijagnosticiranu bolest potrebno je stupnjevati da bismo promjene pojedinih zglobova lakše pratili, ...bilo da su uvjetovane progresijom bolesti ili regresijom zbog terapije. Opisane su mogućnosti slikovne obrade koštano-mišićnog sustava. U dijagnostičkom postupku koristimo standardnu radiološku obradu, kompjuteriziranu tomografiju, magnetsku rezonanciju, ultrazvuk, te kolor-dopler. Važan je podatak i koštana mineralna gustoća pa rutinski snimamo i denzitometriju kostiju.
Opisane su slikovne metode u obradi bolesnika sa sumnjom na spondiloartritis, s posebnim osvrtom na novije metode pregleda. Prikazali smo koje su mogućnosti pojedine metode i kada je treba ...primijeniti. Važno je poznavanje dosega pojedine metode kako u pozitivnom tako u negativnom smislu, razmišljajući o dozi zračenja o regiji koju ćemo snimiti, o dobi bolesnika i koristi koju ćemo imati u postavljanju dijagnoze i liječenju bolesnika.
Opisane su radiološke mogućnosti obrade koštano-mišićnog sustava s posebnim osvrtom na reumatoidni artritis i novije metode pregleda, magnetsku rezonancu, ultrazvuk i kolor doppler. Opisana je ...tomosinteza, nova metoda u obradi trabekularne kosti, s mogućnošću analize gustoće kosti, važne u reumatoidnom artritisu.
