Pulmonary and Critical Care

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)

ILD includes a diverse group of disorders characterized by lung tissue inflammation and fibrosis. Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, NSIP, DIP, connective-tissue disease–related ILD, occupational ILD, and drug-induced ILD remain central research areas. Advances in antifibrotic therapies, imaging techniques, and multidisciplinary care are improving diagnostic accuracy and management.
