Real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 on respiratory specimens is used to confirm COVID-19, but its sensitivity may be affected by the patient's functional status, type of respiratory specimen, and collection technique 3 and has been reported to be initially negative, especially in mild or early illness. Chest radiography may be a useful adjunct in the screening of COVID-19 but is not sensitive in mild or early disease. In a recent meta-analysis, CT was suggested to be more sensitive than real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction 3 but can be also negative in mild or early disease.
