Seminars in Roentgenology, 2015
The term occupational lung disease encompasses the broad category of airway, lung parenchymal, and pleural disorders that occur due to the inhalation of natural occurring and manmade agents of various chemical and physical compositions. This chapter will describe the classic mineral dust exposures of asbestos, silica, and coal. In addition, examples of

Artificial Intelligence in Quantitative Chest Imaging Analysis for Occupational Lung Disease
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2023Occupational lung disease manifests complex radiologic findings which have long been a challenge for computer-assisted diagnosis (CAD). This journey started in the 1970s when texture analysis was developed and applied to diffuse lung disease ...

Work-related interstitial lung disease: what is the true burden?
The International Journal of Tuberculosis and Lung Disease, 2022Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) include a large variety of fibrotic lung conditions caused by genetic and environmental factors. Occupational exposures might also play a significant role, but the real health burden is currently unknown. Here, we aim to

Miscellaneous Occupational Lung Diseases
Archives of Environmental & Occupational Health, 2008A case is presented of a rare occupational lung disease for which the workplace etiology may have been overlooked. The authors review 4 such diseases, which are important to recognize not only because cessation of exposure can lead to clinical improvement, but also because other cases of these conditions may be identified in the workplace.

Occupational immunologic lung disease
Allergy and Asthma Proceedings, 2019Occupational immunologic lung disease is characterized by an immunologic response in the lung to an airborne agent inhaled in the work environment and can be subdivided into immunologically mediated occupational asthma (OA) and hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP).
