Abstract In the first 20 years of the 21st century, severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS), Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome(MERS) and the Coronavirus Disease 2019(COVID-19) outbreak caused by coronavirus all lead to massive public health disasters. This paper focuses on the epidemiological characteristics of coronavirus pneumonia, the pros and cons of imaging examination, the typical imaging features, and differential diagnosis with other types of common viral pneumonia. This paper might help to improve the understanding of the pathogenesis, enhance the awareness on how to use different imaging modalities, improve the diagnostic ability of our radiologists, and help to identify this disease as early as possible, effectively evaluate the treatment effect and prognosis, so as to facilitate our radiologists to fight against this novel coronavirus outbreak.
