Pulmonary Fibrosis Lung Sounds Study

The goal of this observational study is to test whether it is possible to detect particular lung sounds that are unique to patients with the lung disease pulmonary fibrosis and whether any such sounds could be analysed using machine learning to make diagnosing disease easier. Participants will have a sound detection device placed in different locations on the chest and audio sounds will be recorded for analysis. Researchers will compare audio recordings from clinically diagnosed patients with recordings from healthy controls of a similar age to see whether the sounds are sufficiently different within that age group.
