“…55 In a sub-study of the SENSCIS trial in patients with SSc-ILD, only weak correlations were observed between changes in qualitative HRCT parameters (honeycombing, reticulation, and/or fibrotic ground opacity) and the rate of decline in FVC over 52 to 60 weeks. 54 In a sub-study of the INBUILD trial in patients with progressive pulmonary fibrosis, changes in the extent of fibrosis and other qualitative HRCT parameters over 52 weeks were small, despite a marked decline in FVC. 56 Quantitative computed tomography softwares have demonstrated better performance than visual assessment in predicting the progression of ILD, including in patients with autoimmune disease-related ILDs, 38,39,57,58 but are not widely available in clinical practice.…”
