PY - 2023 T2 - Fishman’s Pulmonary Diseases and Disorders, 6e AB - Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogenous group of inflammatory and scarring conditions of the lung. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a distinct form of ILD and represents a specific clinical entity defined by a constellation of clinical, radiographic, and pathophysiologic features. Other forms of cryptogenic ILD that do not fit into the diagnostic criteria for IPF are referred to as “unclassifiable” ILD, although some may, in fact, show a clinical trajectory that matches IPF.
