Abstract:To analyze the changes of Sarc and idiopathic pulmornary fibrosis(IPF)with ILO (International Labor Office)pneumocniosis classification method. Methods: The types and degrees of Sanc and IPF were analyzed according to their
chest X-ray changes compared with the standard ILO pneumconiosis X-ray in 78 Sarc(stage 2,3)and 25 IPF patients. Resuits:The main X-ray change was linear, and the second one was complex. This change deteriorated from upper to lower lung,and there was a significant difference between them. The lesion of upper and middle lung in IPF was more severe than that in Sarc. The density of lower lung at stage 3 was higher than that at stage 2 in Sarc. Conclusion: ILO pneumoconiosis classification method is useful in qualitatively and quantitatively analyzing diffused interstitial lung disease.
