Abstract
Radiоlogic diagnosis of increased density of lung tissue because of «ground glass» opacity has extreme importance in the context of a new coronavirus infection, since this pattern is the main symptom of this formidable disease. Knowledge of the reasons of an increase in the density of lung tissue, of both viral and non-viral etiology, is extremely important for making a diagnosis and initiating timely treatment. The main diseases that are not associated with viral damage to the lung parenchyma, and in which there is a ground glass opacification with additional patterns such as consolidation, reticular changes, are life-threatening situations such as bleeding and hemorrhage in the lung tissue, aspiration, hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Without a multidisciplinary approach, a joint analysis of each specific situation with clinicians, intensive care unit doctors, and radiologists, making a diagnosis is almost impossible.
