| Core Tip |
Majority of asymptomatic individuals with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) disease, an early diagnosis was a challenge despite the gold standard reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction measures the viral nucleic acid with a turnaround period of reporting for 5-6 h. This ultimately led to the usage of chest-X radiography with sensitivity up to 80%, which served as a screening tool for COVID-19. X-radiation-based computed tomography imaging served as another modality to monitor the severity of COVID-19 disease with sensitivity up to 98%. Low-dose radiation therapy with a limited setting showed that it can complement drug therapies in the management of COVID-19. Therefore, X-rays on a whole are been widely used for both diagnostic and therapeutic management of COVID-19 disease. |
