Identifying pulmonary fibrosis?
Pulmonary fibrosis is a common threat for many patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Prompt recognition of fibrotic ILD through HRCT is key to early identification – which can help reduce the burden faced by patients with an uncertain diagnosis.1
Identifying ILD
Imaging atlas of ILD
An atlas designed to help clinicians recognize lesions consistent with infiltrative lung disease and characteristic aspects of ILDs.
HRCT Quick Reference Guide
This tool acts as an ILD guidelines quick reference for identifying & recognizing the features or UIP, NSIP, and fHP or HRCT.
Canadian Society of Thoracic Radiology – HRCT Protocol
HRCT protocol to be used in scenarios in which either the clinician or the radiologist suspects interstitial lung disease and/or pulmonary fibrosis.
Training modules
Training module 1: Detecting pulmonary fibrosis on HRCT
Develop a systemic, step-wise approach for use in the radiologic diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis.
Training module 2: Features of Usual Interstitial Pneumonia (UIP)
Learn how to recognize patterns of typical UIP, probable UIP and indeterminate UIP on HRCT.
Training module 3: Alternative radiologic diagnoses
Learn how to recognize various radiologic patterns of fibrosis, other than UIP, and key features that may help with differential diagnosis on HRCT.
