Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILDs) are a large family of disorders characterized by inflammation and/or fibrosis of areas of the lung dedicated to gas exchange. In this Special Issue entitled "Clinical and Radiological Features of Interstitial Lung Diseases", we collected a series of contributions in which a multidisciplinary approach was crucial for the correct diagnostic assessment of ILD. Sharing knowledge between different specialties can significantly improve diagnostic approaches and the management of ILD patients.
间质性肺疾病(ILDs)是一大类以专门用于气体交换的肺区域发生炎症和/或纤维化为特征的疾病。在本期名为“间质性肺疾病的临床和放射学特征”的特刊中,我们收集了一系列文稿,其中多学科方法对于ILD的正确诊断评估至关重要。不同专业之间分享知识可显著改善ILD的诊断方法和患者管理。
