Abstract
Emerging infectious diseases have seen a record increase in prevalence, and understanding their management is critical in an increasingly global community. In this paper, we review current literature detailing the role of radiology in the diagnosis and treatment of the Ebola (EVD), Zika (ZVD), Chikungunya (CHIKF), H1N1, Middle East Respiratory (MERS), and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) viruses.
Complex protocols are required to safely use portable imaging in EVD to prevent nosocomial spread of disease. In ZVD, antenatal ultrasound can detect fetal abnormalities early, allowing implementation of care and support to affected families. Imaging is useful in assessing the extent of involvement of chronic CHIKF and monitoring treatment effect. Chest radiography and CT play a more direct role in the diagnosis and monitoring of the viral infections with primarily respiratory manifestations (H1N1, MERS, and SARS).
Radiology plays a variable role in emerging infectious diseases, requiring an understanding of disease transmission and safe imaging practices, as well as imaging features that affect clinical management.

Emerging infectious diseases are now recognized at an alarming rate of one per year, resulting from emergence of novel infectious agents or re-emergence of previously described diseases [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>]. In this paper, we explore the utility of various imaging techniques in the evaluation and management of emerging infectious diseases. These include diseases with systemic manifestations caused by the Ebola, Zika, and Chikungunya viruses, and infections with predominantly respiratory manifestations caused by H1N1, MERS, and SARS viruses. While Multi- and Extensively Drug Resistant Tuberculosis continue to play an important role as emerging infectious diseases, this topic is beyond the scope of this work. An approach to imaging in resource-limited settings will also be discussed, with an emphasis on the necessary safety precautions to prevent nosocomial spread of these infectious agents.</p></sec><sec id="Sec2"><title>Ebola Virus Disease (EVD)</title><p id="Par5">The Ebola viruses are a group of RNA viruses in the Filoviridae family, initially isolated in humans in the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire) in 1976 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>]. Small outbreaks have occurred in Africa since its discovery, with population growth and direct interaction with wildlife contributing to increased spread of the virus. There are four viral strains in the genus Ebolavirus that cause disease in humans, with an overall average fatality rate of 50% [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>]. The more virulent Zaire Ebolavirus has a 67% fatality rate and was responsible for the West African Epidemic of 2013 that started in Guinea and quickly spread to Liberia and Sierra Leone. The epidemic peaked in 2014 and ended in 2016, and was the largest recorded EVD outbreak with over 28,000 cases and 11,000 deaths (although the magnitude of the outbreak is likely underestimated) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>]. EVD is ongoing, with recent smaller outbreaks in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 2018 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>]. African fruit bats are believed to be the reservoir host for humans and other primates.</p><p id="Par6">The Ebola virus is spread through the bodily fluids of infected persons, and enters its new hosts via mucous membranes or broken skin [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>]. The incubation period lasts 3–21 days, followed by symptoms of fever, severe headache, myalgia, malaise, diarrhea and vomiting, and, in severe cases, hemorrhage [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>]. A key component of EVD management is containment and control of the highly contagious infection, including contact tracing, use of personal protective equipment, and safe burial practices. Treatment is supportive, including intravenous fluid and electrolyte repletion. Additional supportive methods such as mechanical ventilation and temporary hemodialysis are sometimes utilized in the developed world, but are unavailable in resource-limited settings, where treatment is often limited to oral rehydration [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>∙∙]. A recombinant Zaire Ebola vaccine, with high efficacy for the Zaire strain, was first used in 2018 to stop an outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo.</p><p id="Par7">The role of radiology in the evaluation and management of patients with EVD is limited [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>∙∙, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>] ]. Due to its systemic, non-specific manifestations, imaging is most useful for monitoring supportive treatment, rather than evaluating the direct effect of the disease on specific organs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>∙∙]. Although infrequently available in resource-limited settings, when supportive measures like central venous access or mechanical ventilation are accessible, more specific indications for imaging exist. For example, point of care ultrasound (US) is useful for central venous catheter placement and assessing for associated complications, such as pneumothorax or deep venous thrombosis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>]. Chest radiography is useful in monitoring cardiopulmonary status, assessing central line and endotracheal tube placement, and determining when aggressive measures like endotracheal intubation are indicated [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>].</p><p id="Par8">When imaging of patients with EVD is indicated and adequate resources are available, implementing safe and effective procedures presents a unique challenge. Additional supplies and personnel are required due to increased protective measures needed to safely acquire images [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>]. Ebola virus is transferred via infected bodily fluids, which can survive on surfaces for days to weeks. Medical imaging equipment must be decontaminated before use on other patients, limiting imaging modalities to portable techniques (radiographs and US) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>∙∙]. The utilization of CT and MRI would increase the risk of transmission to patients and healthcare workers [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>] and is often unavailable in regions affected by EVD.</p><p id="Par9">In 2015, Emory University published their protocols for safely obtaining portable US and chest radiographs in their Ebola isolation unit, which includes a multi-step process involving multiple staff members, multiple plastic coverings over imaging equipment, and utilization of an anteroom to prepare and sanitize equipment entering or leaving the patient’s room [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>∙∙, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>]. Other hospitals have developed similar protocols and successfully prevented the spread of Ebola virus to healthcare workers treating their Ebola patients [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>]. When developing a protocol for safely imaging patients with Ebola virus, it is important to use products that adequately kill the virus without damaging the medical equipment. For example, chlorine-based cleaning products may cause erosion of the electrical contact plates of US batteries and charging docks [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>]. Ideally, a fully digital system where the x-ray detector can transmit images wirelessly should be used. This would allow the equipment to remain in the patient’s room throughout treatment. However, this is usually not available in areas affected by EVD [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>∙∙].</p><p id="Par10">The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 3–4% of patients infected with Ebola are healthcare workers, which highlights the importance of prevention of nosocomial spread [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>]. Minimizing the number of hospital staff that come in contact with patients or infected bodily fluids is an important step. Although ultrasounds and radiographs are typically acquired by technologists, other members of the treatment team can be trained to acquire images, in order to decrease the risk of exposure [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>∙∙].</p><p id="Par11">The role of imaging patients with EVD in resource-limited settings is therefore reserved for specific indications, utilizing portable US and portable chest radiography. Imaging of patients with this highly contagious infection must adhere to strict protocols that provide the necessary diagnostic information while preventing disease transmission.</p></sec><sec id="Sec3"><title>Zika Virus Disease (ZVD)</title><p id="Par12">The Zika virus is an arbovirus in the family Flaviviridae that was initially isolated in 1947 in a macaque monkey in the Zika forest in Uganda, and in 1952 in humans. Initially confined to an equatorial belt from Africa to Southeast Asia, the infection spread eastward to the Americas between 2007 and 2016 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. Two small outbreaks in Micronesia in 2007 and in Oceania in 2013–2014 preceded the largest epidemic of ZVD in 2015, which started in Brazil and quickly spread throughout North, Central and South America, and the Caribbean [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. Anthropogenic climate change with warmer temperature and increased precipitation facilitated the epidemic spread, which lasted from 2015 through 2016. ZVD affected an estimated 1.5 million people in Brazil, resulting in over 3800 cases of microcephaly [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. The primary route of Zika virus transmission is through the bite of an infected Aedes aegypti or Aedes albopictus mosquito [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. Once infected, human-to-human transmission occurs through either vertical transmission (from an infected pregnant woman to the fetus) or sexual transmission [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>]. The majority of infections are asymptomatic.</p><p id="Par13">If clinically apparent, the presentation of ZVD is usually mild and non-specific, including fever, maculopapular rash, conjunctivitis, arthralgias, and fatigue that last up to 1 week [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. In fetuses and neonates, infection with Zika virus may cause congenital Zika syndrome. Congenital infection causes direct cellular injury to brain tissue, resulting in microcephaly and retinal damage, with less common defects including congenital contractures and hypertonia. In adults and older children, Zika infection may cause several neurologic manifestations, including Guillain–Barre Syndrome and neuropathy [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>]. The WHO recommends continued vigilance for Zika virus infection, which continues to spread due to climate change, urbanization, and globalization [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>]. There is no specific treatment for Zika infection, although several vaccines entered clinical trials in 2017.</p><p id="Par14">Zika virus conveys a disproportionate risk to low-resource areas, as many of the countries it affects lack the medical facilities to run diagnostic tests [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. There is significant overlap in symptomatology between Zika, Chikungunya, and Dengue infections, and without proper laboratory diagnosis, distinguishing between these endemic viral illnesses is challenging. The primary role of radiology in ZVD is prenatal screening in those suspected of having congenital infection. Prenatal ultrasound allows for early detection of Zika-associated fetal abnormalities and facilitates early implementation of care and support to affected families, one of the objectives outlined in the WHO Zika Strategic Response Plan [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>].</p><p id="Par15">US is particularly suitable for antenatal screening in resource-limited settings, as it is a safe, inexpensive, and accessible method of evaluation. In suspected congenital Zika syndrome, the CDC recommends US be considered every 3–4 weeks to monitor fetal growth and assess for signs of infection and anomalous fetal development [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>]. The most common prenatal ultrasound finding is microcephaly, defined as head circumference more than two standard deviations below the mean for gestational age [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>∙]. However, prenatal normocephaly does not exclude congenital Zika infection, as microcephaly can develop after birth. A study of expectant mothers with confirmed Zika infection in Colombia found a 15- to 24-week delay between maternal diagnosis and development of fetal microcephaly, with the earliest detection at 24-week gestational age [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>]. Therefore, detailed fetal neuroimaging throughout pregnancy is warranted in cases of suspected or confirmed infection, as a normal fetal US before 24-week gestation age does not exclude the possibility of developing congenital Zika syndrome.</p><p id="Par16">Additional intracranial US findings include cerebral parenchymal atrophy and associated ventriculomegaly, subependymal pseudocysts, ocular abnormalities, and hypoplasia or agenesis of the corpus callosum, cerebellum, and brainstem [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>∙]. Parenchymal calcifications can also occur, and are typically located at the gray–white matter junction. Non-neurologic US findings are less specific and include echogenic bowel, hepatosplenomegaly with hepatic calcifications, and talipes equinovarus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>].</p><p id="Par17">Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) provides a more detailed assessment of the neurologic manifestations of congenital Zika syndrome, either prenatally or postnatally. However, MRI is often not available in resource-limited settings [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>]. MRI findings are similar to US, although MRI provides a clearer delineation of patterns of cortical atrophy, white matter abnormalities related to abnormal myelination, and hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, cerebellum, and brainstem (Fig. <xref rid="Fig1" ref-type="fig">1</xref>) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>∙, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>].<fig id="Fig1"><label>Fig. 1</label><caption><p>Infant with confirmed congenital Zika virus infection, with diffuse cortical atrophy and hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, cerebellum, and brainstem. <bold>a</bold> Coronal fluid-attenuated T2, <bold>b</bold> sagittal fluid-attenuated T2, <bold>c</bold> axial fat-saturated T1 and <bold>d</bold> sagittal T2 weighted MRI demonstrate these findings</p><p>Images courtesy of Drs.

CT is a sensitive method for detecting parenchymal calcifications and, unlike US, does not require open fontanelles for imaging. The lower cost of CT and increased availability compared to MRI make it more feasible in resource-limited areas. CT findings of congenital Zika include dystrophic parenchymal calcifications with typical distribution at or below the corticomedullary junction, which decrease in size and number over time [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>]. Other findings include secondary effects of global cerebral cortical volume loss, such as ventriculomegaly, discrepancy between cranium and facial size, cranial bone collapse with protuberance of the occipital bone, and small fontanelles [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>∙, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>]. CT is also useful in monitoring for hydrocephalus once the fontanelles have closed, which occurs in up to 40% of children, often mandating VP shunt placement [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>].</p><p id="Par19">In contradistinction to Ebola virus, infection control does not pose limitations in the imaging of patients with Zika virus, as human-to-human transmission occurs only through sexual or vertical transmission. Diagnostic US, CT, or MRI can be performed while utilizing standard safety precautions and personal protective equipment. Radiology personnel must be aware of standard precautions, including the appropriate use of personal protective equipment, appropriate contact and airborne precautions, and the “5 moments for hand hygiene”: before touching a patient; before any clean or aseptic procedure; after body fluid exposure risk; after touching a patient; and after touching a patient’s surroundings [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">22</xref>]. Congenital Zika syndrome can have profound effects on cerebral development. Appropriate risk assessment along with early and frequent prenatal US evaluation can help detect fetal anomalies, including microcephaly and a spectrum of other intracranial manifestations. If available, more advanced imaging techniques such as CT or MRI can further characterize cerebral abnormalities and monitor for postnatal complications.</p></sec><sec id="Sec4"><title>Chikungunya Fever</title><p id="Par20">Chikungunya fever (CHIKF) is an infection caused by an RNA virus from the Togaviridae family transmitted to humans through the bite of infected Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitos [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>], the same species responsible for the spread of Zika and Dengue viruses.

Radiographic disease has also been classified into four patterns of progression based on the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) system, which categorizes progression based on timing of peaks in radiographic abnormalities.
