High-resolution CT findings of the patient with an adverse prognosis. The patient was a 78-year-old man with IPF. HRCT scan at the level of lower left lobe shows fibrosing changes from the baseline (A) at six (B) and 12 months (C). HRCT images at diagnosis of IPF show subpleural predominant interstitial fibrosis, traction bronchiectasis (arrowheads) and honeycombing (arrows). The overall HRCT fibrosis score at the baseline, six and 12 months were 151.3, 162.5 and 185.8, respectively. This patient died 20 months after initial diagnosis.
