Interstitial Lung Disease

What Are Interstitial Lung Diseases?

Interstitial lung disease, or ILD, is a common term that includes more than 100 chronic lung disorders, which may be:

Nonmalignant (non-cancerous)
Noninfectious

Interstitial lung diseases are named after the tissue between the air sacs of the lungs called the interstitium—the tissue affected by fibrosis (scarring).

Interstitial lung diseases may also be called interstitial pulmonary fibrosis or pulmonary fibrosis.
