==Clinical findings == There is no blood test or diagnostic biomarker to identify patients with long COVID. A study of UK patients by Dennis et al (2020) found that just over 10% of long COVID patients had abnormal findings on the standard tests and did not find an association between standard test results and degree of organ damage or long COVID severity.<ref name="Dennis2020" /> The same study used MRI scans combined with patient questionnaires to assess organ damage, finding that multi-organ impairment was common in people with long COVID, despite the fact that 80% had not been hospitalized for [[COVID-19]], the average patient age was forty-four years old, and rates of pre-existing conditions were also low.<ref name="Dennis2020" />
