| Core Tip |
In the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19)-era, the differential diagnosis of pneumonitis, yet challenging in patients with multiple comorbidities and polypharmacological therapy, has become even more challenging. The gold standard technique for diagnosing COVID-related pneumonia is not still established. Still, computed tomography scan is essential for the differential diagnosis of drug-induced pneumonitis, infectious pneumonia, and other conditions such as cancer progression. With this review, we have dealt with frequent radiological diatribes in the radiological diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonitis, with a special focus on cancer patients, for whom clinical elements can be more confounding than helpful as a compendium to the correct diagnostic conclusion. |
