On December 31, 2019, the Wuhan Health Commission reported the discovery of an "unexplained" pneumonia for the first time; the pathogen was confirmed as novel coronavirus pneumonia (2019-nCoV) on January 7, 2020. As one of the important examination methods for the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), Computed Tomography (CT) examination plays an important role in the clinical discovery of suspected cases, diagnosis, and treatment review. This paper reviews the published papers in order to offer help in early clinical screening, disease diagnosis, disease severity determination and post-treatment review.
