Summary

This study uses advanced CT scans to look at both the lungs and heart in people with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The goal is to find early signs of heart damage, which is a common cause of death in ILD but often goes unnoticed until it's advanced. Researchers will enroll 123 adults with ILD to develop better imaging tools for risk assessment and treatment guidance.
