研究概览
简要总结
The main aim of this study is to detect the value of transthoracic ultrasonography in the diagnosis and assessment of ILDs in correlation to chest X- ray, blood gases, pulmonary function test and echocardiography and to compare it with high resolution CT (HRCT) as a golden diagnostic investigation.
详细描述
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) refers to a group of disorders that are characterized by varying combinations of inflammation and fibrosis involving the space between the epithelial and endothelial basement membranes.

入选标准
- •Adults (≥18 years) diagnosed with ILD
- •All patients must fulfil the 2018 criteria for HRCT chest finding for the diagnosis of Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) form
排除标准
- •Patients with cardiac diseases (Left-sided Heart failure, pulmonary edema) [they may have findings of multiple B lines on transthoracic ultrasound examination which mimic ILD findings].
- •Patients with chronic kidney diseases (as patients presented with nephrogenic pulmonary edema may have findings of multiple B lines on transthoracic ultrasound examination which mimic ILD findings).
