Achieving high diagnostic accuracy in ILDs, particularly for distinguishing usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), is challenging and requires a multidisciplinary approach.

The CT component of the model was trained to identify 28 different radiological features. The pathological counterpart was developed in our previous study.
