About this study

The aim of our study is to investigate the etiological distribution of ILD, epidemiological characteristics of ILD cases such as age, gender, geography, smoking, occupation, economic status, education, and comorbidities. Another aim is to make the cost calculation from the first to the diagnosis in the patients diagnosed. Obtaining the missing data related to the ILD of our country is one of our goals.
