This webinar will discuss the findings of a recent multicenter, prospective study that monitored patients with previous COVID-19 related pneumonia over time to understand the evolution of the disease. The findings of the study and the follow-up which included respiratory function tests, chest CT, and cryobiopsy will be examined and discussed.
Themes explored in this webinar include:
- What is post-COVID-19 pulmonary interstitial lung disease (ILD)?
- How does post COVID-19 IDL differ from other ILDs and how useful is cryobiopsy in characterising the disease?
- What are the available therapies?
