Summary: | Since the start of the pandemic, there have been extensive studies from all over the world reporting on
coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated neurological syndromes. Although initially thought of as
primarily a respiratory pathogen, it became increasingly clear that the virus does have other systemic
manifestations, including on the neurological system. Since then, the discovery of the many neuroimaging
features of COVID-19-associated neurological syndromes have puzzled researchers and physicians in terms
of interpretation, and how best to manage these findings to benefit patients. We sought to review the
neuroimaging findings of COVID-19-associated neurological syndromes, particularly the vessel wall imaging
(VWI) features, in the hope of finding a common feature that would better guide physicians in terms of
further management of this group of patients. We will also look into the potential pitfalls of interpreting the
VWI findings in these patients. |
