  2. Interstitial lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_lung_disease

    Interstitial lung disease (ILD), or diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD), [3] is a group of respiratory diseases affecting the interstitium (the tissue) and space around the alveoli (air sacs) of the lungs. [4] It concerns alveolar epithelium, pulmonary capillary endothelium, basement membrane, and perivascular and perilymphatic tissues. It ...

  3. Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse_idiopathic...

    Pulmonary function: increased residual volume, increased total lung capacity, fixed obstruction, low diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide that corrects with alveolar volume; High-resolution CT scan: diffuse pulmonary nodules 4–10 mm, greater than 20 nodules, mosaic attenuation or air trapping in greater than 50% of the lung

  4. Restrictive lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictive_lung_disease

    Restrictive lung diseases are a category of extrapulmonary, pleural, or parenchymal respiratory diseases that restrict lung expansion, [2] resulting in a decreased lung volume, an increased work of breathing, and inadequate ventilation and/or oxygenation. Pulmonary function test demonstrates a decrease in the forced vital capacity.

  5. Lung nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_nodule

    A lung nodule or pulmonary nodule is a relatively small focal density in the lung. A solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) or coin lesion, [1] is a mass in the lung smaller than three centimeters in diameter. A pulmonary micronodule has a diameter of less than three millimetres. [2] There may also be multiple nodules. One or more lung nodules can be ...

  6. Usual interstitial pneumonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usual_interstitial_pneumonia

    The differential diagnosis includes other types of lung disease that cause similar symptoms and show similar abnormalities on chest radiographs. Some of these diseases cause fibrosis, scarring or honeycomb change. The most common considerations include: chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis; non-specific interstitial pneumonia; sarcoidosis

  7. Pulmonary fibrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_fibrosis

    Symptoms include shortness of breath, a dry cough, feeling tired, weight loss, and nail clubbing. [1] Complications may include pulmonary hypertension, respiratory failure, pneumothorax, and lung cancer. [2] Causes include environmental pollution, certain medications, connective tissue diseases, infections, and interstitial lung diseases.

  8. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiopathic_pulmonary_fibrosis

    It is a type of interstitial lung disease. [3] People often benefit from pulmonary rehabilitation and supplemental oxygen. [1] Certain medications like pirfenidone or nintedanib may slow the progression of the disease. [2] Lung transplantation may also be an option. [1] About 5 million people are affected globally. [8]

  9. Sarcoidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcoidosis

    The diagnosis should be made only after excluding other possible causes of similar symptoms such as tuberculosis. [6] Sarcoidosis may resolve without any treatment within a few years. [2] [5] However, some people may have long-term or severe disease. [5] Some symptoms may be improved with the use of anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen. [8]
