Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a pandemic associated with high morbidity and mortality. Chest computerized tomography (CT) imaging has proven an essential role in diagnosing COVID-19 along with clinical and laboratory tests. This study was a scoping review of literature on several studies regarding COVID-19 CT features. The review indicated that pure ground-glass opacity (GGO), mixed GGO with consolidation, pure consolidation, and pleural effusion were the most common identified COVID-19 CT features. However, further studies regarding the association of COVID-19 CT features with age, gender, and chronic illness like diabetes and hypertension were recommended.
