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