Abstract:
Computed tomography (CT) may be useful at all stages of management of chronic infiltrative lung disease. It contributes to diagnosis and evaluation of inflammation and fibrosis, helping the therapeutic decision and appreciating the response to treatment. It contributes to follow-up in the course of the disease. Some further works are necessary to know the indications of CT and the frequency of examinations.
