abstract = {Since the emergence of the novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), in Wuhan, China in 2019, the resulting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) disease has rapidly transitioned into a global pandemic with over 31 000 deaths and 215 000 infections in the UK as of 10 May 2020. Confirmation of SARS-CoV-2 infection requires reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) testing. Chest radiographic and/or computed tomography (CT) imaging is also central to diagnosis and management.},
