Abstract
Early, accurate diagnosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) is critical for clinical management and therapeutic decision-making, especially distinguishing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) from non-IPF ILD. Unfortunately, current diagnostic imaging methods are limited in resolution and surgical biopsy methods are invasive. In this study, we evaluate the accuracy of endobronchial optical coherence tomography (EB-OCT) as a low-risk method for in vivo ILD diagnosis in patients undergoing surgical biopsy. EB-OCT was able to distinguish diagnostic microanatomical features of IPF from non-IPF ILDs, independently compared against surgical biopsy. These findings support the potential of OCT as a minimally-invasive method for IPF diagnosis.
