Sir can't find the next part

[@johnbowneboysvarsitybasket8925]

Where do you have your office. Would love to have my mother evaluated. Or any contact for your office

[@ThoracicRadiology]

hi, probably the best thing to do is find a pulmonologist or center that deals with interstitial lung disease.

[@963ag]

What exactly, does " multiple irregular streaky linear densities, fibrosis, atelectasis, or subpleural reticulation" ( in the bulibasal and basal region) mean? I am a 60 year old woman, and have never smoked in my life. But years ago (20s and 30s) I was exposed to asphalt, parrots and chickens, and I had pneumonia twice... as a child and in my 40s. I don't have a cough, just a minor loss of stamina ( I am rather active.) I am waiting to be seen by a pulmonologist, I just saw my PCP, but she didn't say much. I Googled all of these terms, and frankly it freaked me out. What is your opinion, doctor?

[@ThoracicRadiology]

Really hard to say just based on description bc it could be a few different things. Not even sure if it is significant or not. Is this your first scan? Did they say it was stable or new?

[@963ag]

@@ThoracicRadiology This is my first scan, I had not yet seen a pulmonologist, my appointment is next month. This was the results of my first and only CT.

[@believe8464]

I have a question as a patient. would a heart (CTA)also be able to see a lung nodule? I was hoping that same exam can be used to follow up on a lung nodule size that was found at 6mm 5 months ago. I wanted to avoid radiaton again

[@ThoracicRadiology]

A heart exam covers most of the lungs but not all. If the nodule is in the apex (top of the lung), you may not see it on a standard cardiac CTA.

[@believe8464]

@@ThoracicRadiology ok thank you.. I think mine is in the right lower lobe. Do you think I should mention that to the technician so they can look keep an eye for it or is that just standard for them when reviewing a CTA ?

[@ThoracicRadiology]

@@believe8464 it should be standard. Especially if it is being done at the same institution where the prior radiologist report and images are available for comparison. If by chance it is not mentioned, you can call your doc to have them ask the radiologist if the nodule is still there.

[@suepumphrey1559]

Do all ILDs that have fibrosis mean a prognosis of 3-5 years?

[@ThoracicRadiology]

hi, no they don't. there's a big range of diseases that can cause fibrosis in the lungs, some that progress quickly and some that progress slowly. even in the same disease, there can be quite a big variation in the rate of progression.

[@laurawilliams5363]

Thank you. Great information. I have diffuse systemic scleroderma. Never smoked etc but have the ground glass, ILD and emphysema.

[@nawazpatel2920]

Is there any chance to cure ILD

[@ThoracicRadiology]

It depends on the type of ILD and the underlying cause.
