Joyce Lee, MD, MS, and Erin M. Wilfong, MD, PhD provide an overview of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and some of the diseases that can lead to ILD. ILD is the umbrella term used for a large group of diseases characterized by inflammation and/or scarring in the lungs. Patients with some diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, myositis, including dermatomyositis and polymyositis (DM and PM), sarcoidosis and Sjögren's syndrome, are at higher risk for ILD. Join us to learn more about how interstitial lung disease (ILD) is diagnosed and treated.
