    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Pathology
    • Pulmonology

    Background:

    • Interstitial pneumonia encompasses a group of lung diseases characterized by inflammation and fibrosis.
    • Accurate CT imaging is crucial for diagnosing and classifying interstitial pneumonia.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify and classify the basic CT appearances of interstitial pneumonia.
    • To correlate CT findings with pathological changes.

    Main Methods:

    • A radiologic-pathologic correlative study was performed using inflated and fixed lungs from autopsy and surgery.
    • CT images of 22 patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) were analyzed.

    Main Results:

    • Interstitial pneumonia CT patterns were classified into 7 categories.

  • Alveolar collapse and airway dilatation were important pathological changes affecting CT images.
  • Lesions such as hazy density, micronodular densities, ring-like shadows, and subpleural bullous changes were frequently observed, primarily in the lung periphery.
  • Conclusions:

    • CT imaging can effectively classify interstitial pneumonia patterns.
    • Specific CT features, including peripheral lesions, are characteristic of IIP.
    • Radiologic-pathologic correlation enhances the understanding of interstitial pneumonia on CT.
