A reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test of an upper respiratory tract specimen (obtained with nasopharyngeal swab and/or oropharyngeal swab) and/or sputum sample is the standard diagnostic tool for determining hospitalization and isolation of patients with SARS-CoV infection. After 13 days of conservative management, her respiratory symptoms ameliorated, and a negative RT-PCR test result for SARS-CoV-2 was obtained. On the basis of this suggestion and experience managing patients with COVID-19, we provide a brief clinical setting to show the use of chest CT to facilitate the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia (Fig 5) . For the management of patients with respiratory symptoms in endemic areas, an RT-PCR test is the primary diagnostic tool used for discriminating SARS-CoV-2-positive cases.	./cache/cord-267770-ik1ib3zb.txt	./txt/cord-267770-ik1ib3zb.txt
