- W4301320538 abstract "Early diagnosis of systemic sclerosis-related interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD) is important to enable treatment to be administered with minimal delay. However, diagnosing SSc-ILD is challenging because key symptoms are non-specific. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest is recognized as a sensitive imaging method for diagnosing and assessing SSc-ILD. Exposure of patients to ionizing radiation may be considered as a limitation, although methodological steps may be taken to moderate this. We present practical recommendations for performing HRCT scans and interpreting the results. Key features of SSc-ILD on HRCT include a non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) pattern with peripheral ground-glass opacities and extensive traction bronchiectasis. Despite similarities between SSc-ILD and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), HRCT can be used to differentiate between these conditions: in SSc-ILD compared with IPF, there is a greater proportion of ground-glass opacity and fibrosis is less coarse. A dilated, air-filled esophagus with diameter >10 mm, suggestive of esophageal dysmotility is commonly seen in SSc-ILD. Pulmonary artery size greater than the adjacent ascending aorta suggests coexistent pulmonary hypertension. Nodules must be monitored due to the increased risk of lung cancer. A large extent of disease on HRCT (≥20%) or a high fibrosis score suggests an increased risk of mortality. HRCT is central to diagnosing SSc-ILD, and serial assessments can be helpful in monitoring disease progression or treatment response." @default.
