The UPMC Autoimmune Interstitial Lung Disease Clinic specializes in treating interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). ILDs cause inflammation and scarring in the lungs, which leads to breathing difficulties and problems with oxygen transport.
The clinic provides complete care for ILD patients who have autoimmune diseases. Pulmonology medicine and rheumatology experts work together to coordinate this care.
The clinic offers various services, including:
- Evaluations by pulmonology and rheumatology specialists.
- Identifying underlying autoimmune diseases.
- Enrolling in clinical trials, and possibly referring patients to the UPMC Lung Transplant Program.
