Summary of Patients with Interstitial Lung Disease Who Underwent In Vivo Endobronchial Optical Coherence Tomography
Case No. | Age/Sex | HRCT Interpretation | In Vivo Endobronchial OCT Diagnosis | Surgical Lung Biopsy Diagnosis |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 56/M | Nondiagnostic | UIP | UIP |
2 | 74/M | Nondiagnostic | UIP | UIP |
3 | 69/M | Nondiagnostic | UIP | UIP |
4 | 52/F | UIP | Non-UIP/IPF ILD | Non-UIP/IPF ILD |
5 | 64/M | Nondiagnostic | UIP | Indeterminate* |
Definition of abbreviations: HRCT = high-resolution computed tomography; ILD = interstitial lung disease; IPF = idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; OCT = optical coherence tomography; UIP = usual interstitial pneumonitis.
Reviewed by five pathologists: interpreted by three as UIP without clear honeycomb; by one as indeterminate, UIP possible; and by one as chronic organizing pneumonia.
