Axial image (a) and 2D coronal image reconstruction (b). High-resolution chest-computed tomography on admission showed patchy ground-glass opacities (GGO). Consolidation was present in the dependent segments of both lungs with an asymmetric distribution, predominantly involving the left lower lobe. Distribution of lesions was mainly located in the medial lung. Acute CT axial (c) and image 2D coronal image reconstruction (d), of 7 days after admission, revealed marked progression of multiple, diffuse, and confluent GGO, even evolved into consolidation. Newly GGO were also distributed along peripheral or subpleural regions. A small amount of pleural effusion was also seen

A new HRCT scan of her thorax revealed diffuse ground-glass opacities and consolidation in the dependent segments of both lungs (visual score extension: 90%) (Fig. 1c and d).
Hypoattenuation within the right insular ribbon (a) and the right frontal convexity (b). Follow-up scan at 24 h (c and d) showed clear hypoattenuation within the right and left hemispheres

After 24 h, her pupils became dilated and unreactive, and brain CT demonstrated large bilateral infarctions of both the cerebellar (not shown) and cerebral hemispheres (Fig. 2c and d).
