The number of lobes affected, number of lobes containing ground-glass opacities and consolidation, number of nodules, distribution of lesions (central, peripheral or diffuse), lobes with centrilobular nodular pattern, and the presence of pleural effusion were recorded separately for both imaging methods. The purpose of this study is to describe the thoracic MRI findings of COVID-19 pneumonia with those of CT and to suggest MRI as an attractive alternative imaging modality is specific cases In a study by Leutner et al., in which 16 immunocompromised patients with pneumonia were included, all ground-glass opacities and consolidations could be diagnosed with MRI.	./cache/cord-323470-lpeeugdf.txt	./txt/cord-323470-lpeeugdf.txt
