Prognostic implications of physiologic and radiographic changes in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia [PDF]
, 2003 Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias are a diverse group of lung diseases with varied prognoses. We hypothesized that changes in physiologic and radiographic parameters would predict survival.
