Based on a recent CME-certified MasterClass and Practicum live web broadcast, this on-demand program provides an overview of interstitial lung diseases (ILDs), including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, connective tissue disease–associated ILDs such as systemic sclerosis–associated ILD, and other chronic fibrosing ILDs associated with a progressive phenotype. The faculty highlight the associated signs and symptoms, heterogeneity, and challenges associated with the recognition of ILDs. The experts also share experiences and lessons from their own practices, offering practical strategies for the diagnosis of ILDs, with regard to the interpretation of high-resolution computed tomography images and the importance of multidisciplinary approaches to reach an accurate diagnosis to ensure prompt, appropriate treatment. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Discuss the pathophysiology and signs and symptoms of ILDs, including IPF, SSc-ILD, and PF-ILD, Interpret radiographic patterns on HRCT to differentially diagnose ILDs, including IPF, SSc-ILD, and PF-ILD, Assess the latest clinical evidence on methods, including HRCT, to monitor disease progression in ILD and evaluate treatment response, Describe collaborative approaches as part of a multidisciplinary team to diagnose ILDs, including IPF, SSc-ILD, and PF-ILD.
