Extract
It is a privilege and honour to introduce a new series entitled “Radiology” that is starting in this issue of the European Respiratory Review (ERR). The series focuses on diagnostic imaging and we are sure it will be of great interest for physicians dealing with both diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) and lung nodules. Indeed, the management of DPLD and incidentally identified lung nodules on computed tomography (CT) is, to say the least, difficult. Diagnostic uncertainty and variation in choice of treatment or follow-up among pulmonologists, radiologists and pathologists are common sources of clinical discussion. The arena of DPLD and incidental lung nodules is topical and both are the subject of recently published or to-be-published guidelines [1, 2].
