Résumé
COVID-19 pneumonia has lesions with a decreased blood flow. Dual-energy computed tomography is suitable to elucidate the pathogenesis of COVID-19 pneumonia because it highlights the blood flow changes in organs. We report the dual-energy computed tomography findings of a successfully treated case of COVID-19 pneumonia. An obese 49-year-old man with COVID-19 pneumonia was transferred from another hospital on day 11 after onset of illness. Although he was hypoxemic (PaO Dual-energy computed tomography can assess perfusion in COVID-19 pneumonia in real time and may be able to predict its severity.

METHODS
An obese 49-year-old man with COVID-19 pneumonia was transferred from another hospital on day 11 after onset of illness. Although he was hypoxemic (PaO
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
Dual-energy computed tomography can assess perfusion in COVID-19 pneumonia in real time and may be able to predict its severity.
