Figures

(A) Cinematic rendering of a chest CT image in a 60-year-old man who presented with real-time polymerase chain reaction–positive. SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia shows a coronal cross-section with consolidation in the left lower lobe (arrow). (B) Coronal shaded-surface display after cinematic rendering of image in the same patient, transitioning from denser tissue structures (collapse of pulmonary alveoli) (blue arrows) to less dense areas (transudate fluids) (white arrow).
