cord-277855-pfmslxy6	Nunes Duarte‐Neto, Amaro	Pulmonary and systemic involvement of COVID‐19 assessed by ultrasound‐guided minimally invasive autopsy	2020-05-22		.txt	text/plain	2896	160	54	14, 15 As a rapid response and preparedness for this new epidemic, our University Clinical Hospital (HC-FMUSP) was assigned to treat the patients with severe COVID-19 in the city of Sao Paulo and we developed a procedure of ultrasound-based minimally invasive autopsy (MIA-US) to study the fatal cases. All rights reserved without negative pressure autopsy rooms; the images obtained by ultrasound are good enough to localise and orient the sampling in several organs; it provides information within a time window fast enough to orient the management of critically ill patients. 1 As the WHO has not yet incorporated the autopsy result in the case definition, considering the possibility of false-negative molecular tests and the absence of an alternative diagnosis for the cause of death, we extended the case definition to one patient with acute and fatal respiratory distress, with typical radiological and histological pulmonary changes, even with negative laboratory results.	./cache/cord-277855-pfmslxy6.txt	./txt/cord-277855-pfmslxy6.txt
