“…In patients with predominantly inflammatory (non-fibrotic) disease, manifested by peripheral GGO on HRCT, the cessation of smoking will be associated with significant improvement or resolution of the abnormalities [19,20]. Corticosteroid therapy may be used in conjunction with smoking cessation.…”

“…Patients with RB-ILD or DIP are usually 30-40 yrs of age and have an average smoking history of 30 pack-yrs [7,11]; males are affected approximately twice as often as females [59,60]. Symptoms and clinical aspects in both these diseases are nonspecific.…”

“…Fibrosis may be present in 50-60% of the patients [34,35], but honeycombing is rare [17]. On follow-up HRCT, patients receiving treatment can show partial or complete resolution of the areas of ground-glass opacification [37]. The CT differential diagnosis includes RB-ILD, NSIP, and acute hypersensitivity pneumonitis [34].…”

“…Also, recurrence in a transplanted lung has been reported [39]. Some authors have observed a possible progression of DIP to usual interstitial pneumonia, but there is little evidence yet [37].…”
