Abstract:
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) are a heterogeneous group of disorders, which are functionally cha-racterized by a restrictive ventilatory defect and exercise induced hypoxemia.Most lung function abnormalities in ILD share common features but are not specific.Pulmonary function is important for the diagnosis of patients with suspected ILD.For the diagnosis of ILD cases, pulmonary function test can assess the severity of the diseases and monitor progre-ssion of diseases.
