Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
DLCO%pred (carbon monoxide diffusing capacity) at time of ILD diagnosis5 years

The investigators aim to assess DLCO% pred at time of ILD diagnosis in patients undergoing a ILD Screening algorithm and compare to the retrospective patient cohort with diagnosed ILD and the DLCO%pred at time of ILD diagnosis

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
FVC%pred (Forced vital capacity) at time of ILD diagnosis5 years

The investigators aim to assess FVC% pred at time of ILD diagnosis in patients undergoing a ILD Screening algorithm and compare to the retrospective patient cohort with diagnosed ILD and the FVC%pred at time of ILD diagnosis
