The purpose of this Review is to describe the clinical and research gaps in the diagnosis and prognosis ofILD, and how machine learning can be applied to image biomarker research to close these gaps. Machine-learning algorithms can identify ILD in at-risk populations, predict the extent of lung fibrosis, correlate radiological abnormalities with lung function decline, and be used as endpoints in treatment trials, exemplifying how this technology can be used in care for people with ILD. Advances in image processing and analysis provide further opportunities to use machine learning that incorporates deep-learning-based image analysis and radiomics. Collaboration and consistency are required to develop optimal algorithms, and candidate radiological biomarkers should be validated against appropriate predictors of disease outcomes.  \nIntroduction  \nThe field of interstitial lung disease (ILD) is at acrossroads. Historically, assessment of ILD has focused on a diagnosis dependent on a complex clinical, radiological, and pathological process, for which radio pathological patterns are fundamental. However, these patterns do not reliably inform disease behaviour, particularly in patients who do not present with usual interstitial pneumonia in a surgical lung biopsy.1 Although idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the prototypical progressive fibrotic lung disease, progressive disease behaviour is not limited to patients with IPF.1 Trial data published in 2019 show that some patients with non IPF progressive fibrotic lung disease follow a disease course similar to untreated IPF and that these patients benefit from antifibrotic therapy.2 This finding has shifted research efforts towards finding biomarkers that reliably predict the development of progressive fibroticlung disease with baseline clinical data and imaging data. The evaluation of ILD involves the integration of clinical and imaging data and, in some cases, biological material such as bronchoalveolar lavage, cryobiopsy, or surgical lung biopsy.3 High resolution CT of the chest (HRCT) is routinely used in all patients with suspected ILD and allows non invasive imaging of the disease morphology and the extent of disease. However, visual evaluation ofILD by HRCT is liable to have high rates of inter reader variability and has little sensitivity to changes in disease severity over short follow up periods.4 In contrast, quantitative CT (QCT), which uses computer based techniques to analyse HRCT images, provides an alternative evaluation that is objective and reproducible. Historically, QCT investigations showed that simple measurements based on statistical analyses of CT  \nattenuation values in the lungs can quantify disease severity.5,6 Improvements in computing power have facilitated rapid advances in image analysis, including efforts to use machine learning for the development of more precise and specific digital biomarkers. In this Series paper, we describe the current clinical and research gaps in ILD diagnosis and prognosis and outline how machine learning can be applied to imaging biomarker research in patients with suspected ILD.  \nClinical and research gaps in ILD  \nFor patients with suspected ILD, an accurate, timely diagnosis and a reliable prognostication remain challenging.
