We appreciate the interest of Dr. Orsi et al. in our report [1], and we respect the valuable comments made by our colleagues from Milan, Italy, as they struggle to combat the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Hospitals in central Japan are also facing a similar situation, and therefore, the comments made by them are invaluable.We decided to use a CT suite as a dedicated room. Our central radiology section has three CT scanners along a corridor with an arrangement to increase the efficiency of scanning and to avoid the crowding of the patients in front of the CT suites while minimizing contact between COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 patients.The scanners use 0.75-mm section CT images for the lung parenchyma, and we strongly agree with their reconstruction protocol that comprises thinner section thickness. Dr. Iwasawa also suggested the importance of ultra-high-resolution CT to scrutinize imaging findings of COVID-19 pneumonia [2]. We adopted 2-mm section thickness at the time of submission of our report [1], and since then, this has been changed to 1 mm.We appreciate their comments regarding contrast-enhanced CT use for COVID-19 patients and the importance of support from Healthcare Assistants (HA) in dedicated CT suites.Thank you again for the important suggestions, and we hope the serious health emergency caused by COVID-19 in Milan improves swiftly.
