Bronchiolitis refers to a set of diseases affecting the small airways, which are frustratingly hard to diagnose and manage. Misdiagnosis and treatment delay may result in progressive respiratory decline. Early recognition of culprit drugs, exposures, and systemic disease amenable to immunosuppression are among potential interventions. The objectives of this session are to: 1) Present clinical tools to recognize bronchiolar disorders as the predominant or contributing pathology; 2) Identify the likely etiology through clinicoradiologic correlation; and 3) Appreciate the histopathologic pattern of bronchiolar disorders and the appropriate clinical context to obtain histopathology.

Identify conditions associated with small airways diseases, including infectious, autoimmune, and exposure-related etiologies.

Identify distinct radiologic patterns for common bronchiolitis syndromes.
