RadioGraphics Update: Venous Thrombosis and Hypercoagulability in the Abdomen and Pelvis—Findings in COVID-19	2020-07-10		.txt	text/plain	1625	84	33	Several recent studies have explored the link between COVID-19 and hypercoagulability, with early investigations suggesting that the most common laboratory test result abnormalities include elevated d-dimer levels and mild thrombocytopenia (2) . This cytokine cascade can ultimately yield extensive cell damage, necrosis, and injury to multiple organs (14, 19) and may partially explain the disparate multisystem symptoms in patients In a recent study, lungs obtained at autopsy in patients who died from COVID-19 demonstrated distinctive vascular features, including severe endothelial injury associated with intracellular virus and disrupted cell membranes, as well as extensive thrombosis, microangiopathy, alveolar capillary microthrombi, and more new vessel growth or angiogenesis compared with those lungs obtained at autopsy from patients who died from influenza (17) . The results from the previously described studies indicate that in patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, radiologists should maintain a high index of suspicion for thromboembolic complications.	./cache/cord-328039-xt17gvcp.txt	./txt/cord-328039-xt17gvcp.txt
