The Gold Standard for Current SARS CoV2 Detection is RT-PCR Clinical Trial
Official title:
Multicentric Retrospective Observational Study of Thoracic Scanner Performance in COVID Screening. Comparison to Virological Testing and Multiparametric Gold Standard
All patients included in this search will be on anonymized file: Symptomatic patients
consulting for suspicion of COVID 19 with indication to a screening (RT-PCR, Scanner)
according to the criteria of the Ministry of Health.
To evaluate the diagnostic performance of chest CT in screening for COVID-related lung injury
in patients with a clinical suspicion of COVID.
CT scan results for COVID according to French thoracic imaging society will be dichotomized
into evocative or compatible (considered positive) non-evocative (considered negative) The
results will be compared to the gold standard corresponding to a multiparametric element: the
discharge summary.
Ct Scan performance will be recorded and analyzed.
