American Thoracic Society (ATS)– Guideline of 2003
Asbestosis refers to interstitial fibrosis, not to pleural fibrosis with or w/o pleural thickening
Diagnosis Evidence of structural pathology consistent with
asbestos-related disease (either imaging or histology) Evidence of causation – history, plaques Exclusion of alternative plausible causes See PM E-500 §§ 17 & 18 – if not asbestosis, may
still be considered an “asbestos-related disorder” p. 6, “lung fibrosis” p. 7 or “pneumoconiosis” p. 8

American Thoracic Society (ATS) on Smoking
Smokers w/o dust exposure can have irregular opacities, but rarely as high as 1/0
Latency – usually 20 or more years Duration – as little as 1 month of high
level High intensity exposure can decrease
latency PM E-500, Exhibit 2

Mesothelioma – Pleural
Pain, SOB, Cough, Insidious 4-6 mo later – pleural effusion, weight loss,
increasing pain, Misdiagnosed as
Cardiac, GB Shoulder pain Meso can be confused with metastatic lung, prostate,
