Correlation of plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) with radiographic features of congestion in chest CT scan of patients with COVID-19

Correlation of plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) with radiographic features of congestion in chest CT scan of patients with COVID-19

Abstract Background Given the importance of chest computed tomography (CT) to differentiate congestion from COVID-19 pneumonia, and considering the association of chest CT findings with cardiac biomarkers in patients with concomitant COVID-19 and heart failure, this study was conducted to identify t...
