Description:
Collection of links to resources about this disease that "harms the tissues deep in your lungs. The air sacs ... become inflamed and scarred. If scarring progresses, it makes your lungs thick and stiff. That makes it hard for you to catch your breath, and your blood may not get enough oxygen." Covers diagnosis and symptoms, disease management, research, and related areas. From U.S. National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health.
