"Classification"

Line 6:1 · "Classification" should be H2, not H1.
Commas
suggestion

"Interstitial lung abnormality is defined as incidental bilateral non-dependent findings, including ground-glass opacity, reticulation, distortion, traction bronchiectasis, honeycombing, or non-emphysematous pulmonary cysts affecting >5% of a lung zone where interstitial lung disease is not suspected 8."

Line 5:91 · More than 5 commas in a single sentence might make it more difficult to read.
Semicolons
suggestion

"non-subpleural: no increased mortality; non-progressive"

Line 9:46 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"Interstitial lung abnormalities may progress to fibrosis - 20% in 2 years, and 40% in 5 years 8; and portend a higher risk of all-cause mortality 7."

Line 20:117 · Use semicolons judiciously.
