High-resolution computed tomography features of asbestosis versus fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis: an observational study

Abstract Background Asbestosis and fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (FHP) share the pathogenetic mechanisms induced bronchiolocentric fibrotic process secondary to inhalation exposure. Under the occupational and environmental mixed exposures, asbestosis and FHP are needed to make the differenti...
