Pneumonitis: Introduction
Although the term "pneumonitis" actually means any
type of lung inflammation, its use is usually avoided
for conditions such as pneumonia or other infectious lung conditions.
Pneumonitis as a diagnosis usually refers to a form of non-infectious
lung inflammation.

are difficult to diagnose.
Even the well-knowns conditions such as asthma or lung cancer often fail to be diagnosed early.
Some of the chronic lung diseases with diagnostic difficulties
include asthma (perhaps surprisingly), COPD, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, mesothelioma,
smoker's cough, AIDS-related respiratory conditions (see AIDS), chronic pneumonia, and other respiratory diseases.
Rare possibilities include diseases like psittacosis (bird-related lung infection).
