Correlation between CT-based phenotypes and serum biomarker in interstitial lung diseases
Quantitative analysis of CT features and serum KL-6 levels ascertained a positive correlation between the two. In addition, the combination of reticulation and KL-6 shows potential for predicting hospitalizations of ILD patients due to respiratory causes. The combination of reticulation, focusing on phenotypic change in lung parenchyma, and KL-6, as an indicator of lung injury extent, could be helpful for monitoring and predicting the prognosis of various types of ILD.
