As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic continues globally, there are an increasing number of pediatric cases. Since the initial symptoms of COVID-19 may overlap and co-exist with other respiratory infections typically affecting children, this review examines the use of computed tomography as a diagnostic and management tool. Children with preexisting conditions may be particularly prone to a more severe course. This study reviews and analytically summarizes the findings typically associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in contrast with other more usual lower respiratory tract infections.
随着2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行在全球持续，儿科病例越来越多。由于COVID-19的初始症状可能与通常影响儿童的其他呼吸道感染重叠并同时存在，本综述探讨了计算机断层扫描作为一种诊断和管理工具的应用。患有基础疾病的儿童可能特别容易出现更严重的病程。本研究回顾并分析总结了与严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2相关的典型发现，并与其他更常见的下呼吸道感染进行了对比。
