Yes, the HRCT(high-resolution computed tomography) has more sensitivity than the traditional chest X-ray in identification of exudative lesions and occult parenchymal disease that helps in assessing activity of pulmonary TB.

HRCT scans have been proved to increase the diagnostic confidence. HRCT bears specificity of approximately 85.7% and sensitivity for a confident diagnosis of TB is almost 73%. For COVID-19 the sensitivity of HRCT is 46% and specificity is found to be 72.6%.

  • Score-0 = Indicate no parenchymal involvement
  • Score-1 = It signifies upto 50% involvement
