Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common and serious complication of systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARD). The prevalence and prognosis of ILD vary depending on the type and severity of the underlying SARD. Recently, two drugs have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of ILD in SARD, and the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) has issued guidelines for the screening and monitoring of these patients. Therefore, it is essential to detect and manage ILD in SARDs as early as possible. High-resolution CT of the chest is the current gold standard test for diagnosis of ILD, yet, it is not uniformly performed as an initial diagnostic test. This review discusses the latest advances in imaging techniques for the diagnosis, assessment, and follow-up of SARD-ILDs. |
