    Abstract This article aims to summarize the available data on the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SAR-CoV-2) imaging patterns as well as reducing radiation dose exposure in chest computed tomography (CT) protocols. First, the general aspects of radiation dose in CT and radiation risk are discussed, followed by the effect of changing parameters on image quality. This article attempts to highlight some of the common chest CT signs that radiologists and emergency physicians are likely to encounter. With the increasing trend of using chest CT scans as an imaging tool to diagnose and monitor SAR-CoV-2, we emphasize that pattern recognition is the key, and this pictorial essay should serve as a guide to help establish correct diagnosis coupled with correct scanner parameters to reduce radiation dose without affecting imaging quality in this tragic pandemic the world is facing.

    Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is a routinely employed diagnostic tool for the detection and diagnosis of disease processes. Despite the primary focus of radiation dose reduction and improvements in CT scanners, radiation dose exposure remains an ever-increasing concern. Scanning protocol optimisation relative to body weight and scanner manufacturer still lags behind the diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) that are set on an international scale. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the current status of adult DRLs in head, chest and abdominopelvic CT over time on a global scale. A search was carried out in early 2019 using the Medline, PubMed, EMBASE, SCOPUS and manual databases. The reference lists of published articles were also assessed to identify further articles. The preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) methodology was employed to evaluate articles for relevance. Articles were included if they assessed the DRL in head, chest and abdominopelvic scans. The search resulted in 6079 articles, of which 67 were included after a thorough screening process. The literature demonstrates a wide dose variation in reported head, chest and abdominopelvic dose length product (DLP) DRL, ranging from 700-1359, 330-707 and 550-1486 mGy·cm, respectively. Where reported, the volumed CT dose index (CTDI
