Novel coronavirus has become a global health hazard and its high infectivity is alarming. The imaging findings of the 2019-nCoV infection in our young diabetic patient featured ground-glass opacities and consolidations in both lungs. The lung lesions may involute rapidly during the course. The patient showed improvement both clinically and on computed tomography imaging at discharged after 2 weeks' treatment. Computed tomography scans of patients helped monitor the changes continuously, which could timely provide the information of the evolution of the disease or therapeutic effect to clinicians.
新型冠状病毒已成为全球健康危害，其高传染性令人震惊。我们这位年轻糖尿病患者的 2019 新型冠状病毒感染的影像学特征是双肺磨玻璃影和实变。在病程中，肺部病变可能迅速吸收。经过 2 周的治疗，患者出院时临床和计算机断层扫描（CT）影像均有改善。对患者进行 CT 扫描有助于连续监测病情变化，及时为临床医生提供疾病演变或治疗效果的信息。
