Desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP) is a very rare disease of interstitial pneumonia. High-resolution CT (HRCT) features are characterized as having a ground-glass appearance persisting for a long time. Idiopathic DIP should be differentiated from DIP-like reaction. The pathological and HRCT correlation should be investigated in the future.
