Interactive Cases

The PILOT™ Interactive Cases provide physicians with an interactive tool for analyzing and evaluating actual patient scenarios. Cases outline the patient history (age, other illnesses, family history, etc.), medication history, and specific pulmonary disease progression information, supplemented with patient radiographs, PFTs, serology, and biopsy results where available. Users read a case and complete 8-10 key questions identifying what should be learned from the case study.
