摘要:= 0.1%) in the latter scenario. The proportion of IPF with the possible UIP pattern was moderately correlated with the prevalence of IPF (correlation coefficient, 0.605; 95%CI, 0.550-0.860). There was a negligible pooled percentage difference in the proportion of IPF between the UIP and possible UIP patterns, indicating that IPF diagnosis can be confirmed without biopsy in suspected IPF cases with the possible UIP pattern.
