for uip pattern of ilsd, piefenox is recommended. But one thing should be kept in mind that this medicine does not reverse the disease. It will only slow the progression

I am actually curious that hrct says ILD most likely UIP but doctor wrote ILD with non UIP
What's the reason?

HRCT report mentions ground glass which usually is not a feature of UIP maybe that is a reason the pulmonologist has said that it's not UIP. further comments can be given by looking at the HRCT films or video
