"The associated interstitial lung disease of anti-synthetase syndrome usually gives either a NSIP pattern, an organising pneumonia (OP) pattern or a combination of the two (NSIP-OP pattern) 6. A UIP pattern may also occasionally occur 8. The consolidative regions may decrease or resolve in many cases although the disease can at times progress to fibrosis in more than one third of patients."
