In the United States, approximately 100,000 people have IPF with 30,000-40,000 new cases diagnosed annually. Diagnosis remains a challenge with a significant lag between symptoms onset and diagnosis. Delayed diagnosis and treatment can carry high morbidity and mortality. This book provides concise, easy-to-read, and up-to-date information as it relates to clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of IPF. Despite, adequate treatment, the disease progresses, and a lung transplant is necessary in some cases. This book also discusses the role of lung transplants for IPF and its complications. It is a useful resource for primary care physicians, allied health professionals, hospitalists, and pulmonary physicians who take care of patients with IPF.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Intechopen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45549317095575,"sku":"9781839692390","price":10923.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781839692390.webp?v=1767911809","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/idiopathic-pulmonary-fibrosis-9781839692390","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
