Sumario:As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic strains the healthcare system, radiology residents across the United States have become a vital part of the redeployed workforce. Through a series of four cases of COVID-19 patients encountered on the wards, we highlight the insight and unique set of skills redeployed radiology residents possess that are essential to patient care during this crisis. By increasing visibility through active participation on the clinical team, we demonstrate the fundamental role radiology has in the greater field of medicine.
