| High-Resolution Computed Tomography | Diagnostic Test | High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) plays a crucial role in diagnosing and managing Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). It helps identify the characteristic pattern of IPF, known as Usual Interstitial Pneumonia (UIP), and can sometimes obviate the need for lung biopsy. |

| high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) | Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scans are crucial for diagnosis and assessment of disease severity. HRCT findings typically show a reticular pattern with traction bronchiectasis and honeycombing, predominantly in the subpleural and basal regions of the lungs | 12 Months |
