What to Expect During Your Visit

Please bring your previous chest imaging (reports and images on a disc), pulmonary function test reports, lung biopsy report and glass slides (if done), if not already submitted prior to the visit.

Your provider will perform a comprehensive history and physical examination, review any prior testing and imaging you have had related to your diagnosis. You may be asked to undergo additional testing to help us make the diagnosis.

Making the Diagnosis

Interstitial lung disease can take on a variety of forms. Often, understanding if a patient has interstitial lung disease and what caused it can be a challenge. It requires taking a detailed history, performing a thorough physical exam, ordering the appropriate testing, and reviewing imaging and biopsy results (if performed) with a team of specialists with expertise in ILD. Our team of ILD providers work closely as part of a multidisciplinary group of specialists in order to provide our patients with an accurate diagnosis. We meet weekly to discuss cases at our multidisciplinary conference.

Multidisciplinary Care

Our specialists work closely with a group of experts from specialties across 日本av色情片 and NewYork-Presbyterian to diagnose and manage our patients’ lung disease and any related health problems.
