Due to the emergence of the pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus (coronavirus disease or COVID-19) the generalities since its emergence, pathophysiology and clinical picture, as well as the findings observed in imaging methods such as x-ray, tomography and ultrasound should be disseminated and known to all health personnel involved in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. This article is an overview of the clinical and radiological characteristics observed in the infection, the limitations of the different imaging methods, as well as their correlation with the time of evolution of the disease. Additionally, reference is made to the use of artificial intelligence in radiology for the diagnosis of COVID-19.
