Rheumatoid arthritis often brings unexpected complications, including interstitial lung disease (ILD), which can impact both lung function and overall health. In this episode of Spotlight on Pulmonary Fibrosis, Professor Tomcik, a leading rheumatologist from the Institute of Rheumatology in Prague, explores the vital link between rheumatoid arthritis and ILD. He discusses the key symptoms to monitor, risk factors, and what to consider before visiting a doctor. He also covers the screening process for ILD in rheumatoid arthritis and the multidisciplinary approach needed.
