Coronavirus outbreak from China had spread globally within very short period and resulting very large number of cases around 25.3 million as of date worldwide, more than 8 lakh deaths are registered. All countries have started research for vaccine to control the spread of corona virus. Recently Russia had announced its first COVID -19 vaccine and other countries are at different phases of clinical trials.

Radiology is playing key role in diagnosis of coronavirus. COVID-19 infection causes an extreme lower respiratory tract infection with reciprocal, basal, and fringe prevalent ground-glass obscurity, union, or both as the most widely recognized detailed CT discoveries-highlights average of an arranging pneumonia example of lung injury. Most patients with lower respiratory tract infection brought about by COVID-19 present with fever, dyspnea, and myalgia.

The more direct depictions of CT discoveries can explain discoveries on chest radiographs. The transcendent CT discoveries of COVID-19 infection are reciprocal, fringe, and basal transcendent ground-glass haziness, union, or both. A few examiners have written about momentary CT line up of patients with COVID-19 infection. CT imaging shows the progression of lung anomalies with the improvement of insane clearing and increment in solidification, more-broad lung inclusion, and moderate goal-the run of the mill advancement of acute lung injury.

Suspected lower respiratory tract infection regularly warrants imaging, either as chest radiography, frequently first-line regardless of its lower affectability, or chest computed tomography (CT). Imaging of suspected or affirmed COVID-19 cases in Canada will probably increment as the quantity of cases increments broadly.

Routine unenhanced chest CT is a helpful instrument in early diagnosis of COVID-19 infection, particularly in settings of restricted accessibility of opposite transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The radiology division has a commitment to guarantee quiet focused consideration while keeping up staff security. With medical clinic radiology divisions and network radiography facilities having the capacity to be center points for infection spread, plans to forestall nosocomial infection spread ought to be created.

Effective correspondence between the alluding administrations and crisis radiology office is urgent in restricting the spread of this exceptionally infectious infection. The radiology division ought to be told before moving the suspected case with the goal that proper infection control measures are set up already.

Radiographers ought to be prepared enough on the utilization of PPE and infection control techniques as they will be in the main line of contact. Versatile obtaining of radiographs ought to be energized in a negative constrain room at whatever point conceivable to restrict the transportation of the patient. Be that as it may, if patients must be moved to the radiology office, they should accompany an unmistakable respiratory insurance sign and with a surgical face mask on. Patients ought to be guided about the respiratory manners, and utilization of leaflets with clear instructions can be useful in such situations. The room ought to in a perfect world not to be utilized for 15 minutes in the wake of imaging the suspected patient. Radiographers must use full PPE for cleaning and disinfection after the patient is released from the room as per the manufacturer's instructions.
