| Summary: | Substantial changes have been recently made in the concept of the diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The concept of disease pathogenesis and the pathomorphologic criteria for diagnosing usual interstitial pneumonia have been revised. All idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis treatments that existed prior to 2011 have been found to be ineffective. This article analyzes the currently existing computer tomographic criteria for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and considers the common causes of errors and the possibilities of improving the existing X-ray criteria. |
