Recenzje

"This book provides a fascinating insight into the Chinese approach to COVID-19 diagnosis early in the pandemic. It includes a wealth of good quality unenhanced thoracic CT examples of acute and early disease follow-up, and is best viewed as a supplementary text due to the paucity of alternative imaging modalities and repetition of 'typical' cases." (Pia Charters, RAD Magazine, July, 2021)
