In 20 patients with chronic form of hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) pulmonary function tests (FEV1, FVC, DCO) and high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scans were obtained. Extent of pathological changes, i.e. nodularity, lines, honeycombing but not ground-glass estimated by HRCT and expressed as a score correlated significantly with lung function abnormalities.
