Lung Foundation Australia, in collaboration with the Centre of Research Excellence in Pulmonary Fibrosis, look forward to presenting the Screening and Interstitial Lung Abnormalities (ILAs) webinar, presented by Dr John Mackintosh, Respiratory and Lung Transplant Physician at the Prince Charles Hospital, Brisbane.
This webinar will provide you with an insight into ILAs, which are often found during an investigation or scan of the chest or lungs. The webinar will provide information to help support you through a finding of an ILA, including what these early signs may mean and how best to monitor ILAs over time.
You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions and engage in real-time discussions.
