Inclusion terms

Applicable to

  • pulmonary fibrosis (chronic) following radiation (J70.1) (from J84.1)
  • drug-induced interstitial lung disorders (J70.2-J70.4) (from J84)
  • interstitial emphysema (J98.2) (from J84)

Excludes2

Not included here — may be reported together when both conditions exist.

  • certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96) (from J84)
  • certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99) (from J84)
  • complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A) (from J84)
  • congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99) (from J84)
  • endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88) (from J84)
  • injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88) (from J84)

  • symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R94) (from J84)
  • lung diseases due to external agents (J60-J70) (from J84)

Code first

  • lung diseases due to external agents (J60-J70)
  • rheumatoid arthritis (M05.00-M06.9)
  • sarcoidosis (D86.-)
  • systemic connective tissue disorders (M30-M36)
