Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a type of obstructive lung disease characterized by long-term breathing problems and poor airflow.

CT scan
A CT scan, also known as computed tomography scan, makes use of computer-processed combinations of many X-ray measurements taken from different angles to produce cross-sectional (tomographic) images (virtual "slices") of specific areas of a scanned object, allowing the user to see inside the object without cutting.

Fibrosis
Fibrosis is the formation of excess fibrous connective tissue in an organ or tissue in a reparative or reactive process.

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP; also called allergic alveolitis, bagpipe lung, or extrinsic allergic alveolitis, EAA) is an inflammation of the alveoli within the lung caused by hypersensitivity to inhaled organic dusts.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a type of chronic lung disease characterized by a progressive and irreversible decline in lung function.

Interstitial lung disease
Interstitial lung disease (ILD), or diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD), is a group of lung diseases affecting the interstitium (the tissue and space around the air sacs of the lungs).

Lung transplantation
Lung transplantation or pulmonary transplantation is a surgical procedure in which a patient's diseased lungs are partially or totally replaced by lungs which come from a donor.

Median
The median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population, or a probability distribution, from the lower half.

Nitrofurantoin
Nitrofurantoin, sold under the trade name Macrobid among others, is an antibiotic used to treat bladder infections.

Non-specific interstitial pneumonia
Non-specific interstitial pneumonia (also known as Non-specific interstitial pneumonitis) (NSIP) is a form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia.

Oxygen therapy
Oxygen therapy, also known as supplemental oxygen, is the use of oxygen as a medical treatment.
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Oxygen therapy · See more »
Pathology
Pathology (from the Ancient Greek roots of pathos (πάθος), meaning "experience" or "suffering" and -logia (-λογία), "study of") is a significant field in modern medical diagnosis and medical research, concerned mainly with the causal study of disease, whether caused by pathogens or non-infectious physiological disorder.

Pirfenidone
Pirfenidone is a medication used for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Pirfenidone · See more »
Pneumoconiosis
Pneumoconiosis is an occupational lung disease and a restrictive lung disease caused by the inhalation of dust, often in mines and from agriculture.
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Pneumoconiosis · See more »
Pulmonary fibrosis
Pulmonary fibrosis (literally "scarring of the lungs") is a respiratory disease in which scars are formed in the lung tissues, leading to serious breathing problems.
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Pulmonary fibrosis · See more »
Respiratory failure
Respiratory failure results from inadequate gas exchange by the respiratory system, meaning that the arterial oxygen, carbon dioxide or both cannot be kept at normal levels.
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Respiratory failure · See more »
Rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term autoimmune disorder that primarily affects joints.
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Rheumatoid arthritis · See more »
Sarcoidosis
Sarcoidosis is a disease involving abnormal collections of inflammatory cells that form lumps known as granulomas.

Scleroderma
Scleroderma is a group of autoimmune diseases that may result in changes to the skin, blood vessels, muscles, and internal organs.
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Scleroderma · See more »
Shortness of breath
Shortness of breath, also known as dyspnea, is the feeling that one cannot breathe well enough.
New!!: Usual interstitial pneumonia and Shortness of breath · See more »
Silicosis
Silicosis (also known as miner's phthisis, grinder's asthma, potter's rot and other occupation-related names, or by the invented name pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis) is a form of occupational lung disease caused by inhalation of crystalline silica dust, and is marked by inflammation and scarring in the form of nodular lesions in the upper lobes of the lungs.
