High-resolution CT is highly contributive for correctly diagnosing chronic infiltrative lung disease, as it enables better interobserver agreement, it reveals more discriminant findings, and it provides complementary information. High-resolution CT should be considered an excellent extension to chest radiography and should be included in the routine investigation strategy of chronic infiltrative lung disease.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011658 Pulmonary Fibrosis A process in which normal lung tissues are progressively replaced by FIBROBLASTS and COLLAGEN causing an irreversible loss of the ability to transfer oxygen into the bloodstream via PULMONARY ALVEOLI. Patients show progressive DYSPNEA finally resulting in death.

D012680 Sensitivity and Specificity Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives.
