ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

The 1980 International Labor Office International Classification of Radiographs of Pneumoconioses is a widely used epidemiologic tool with a storied past. This article reviews its development and examines its applications to occupational lung disease and the controversies generated in that process. The question of its relevancy to current imaging practices is discussed.
