Chemical nature of the particulate
Individual susceptibility

42
Q

Characteristics of Pneumoconiosis

Insidious onset - just appears one day
Long latency - can happen 10 years after inhale it
Irreversible - cant get rid of fibrosis
Progressive course - once symp start, get worse
No effective treatment

43
