Background: Chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial lung disease, and cystic fibrosis, present substantial global health challenges. This systematic review explores recent advances in imaging-based diagnostic methods for these conditions, emphasizing high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and artificial intelligence (AI). Methodology: A systematic search of databases identified studies published in the last five years, focusing on innovative imaging techniques for chronic respiratory diseases. Inclusion criteria emphasized diagnostic accuracy and advancements in imaging modalities. Results: Seven studies were included, covering interventions in intensive care, mesenchymal stem cell therapy for COVID-19-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), endovascular treatment for aortic arch aneurysms, and lung cancer screening. MSC therapy demonstrated positive outcomes in ARDS patients, while endovascular repair showed technical success. LungSEARCH highlighted the effectiveness of lung cancer screening in high-risk populations. Discussion: Recent imaging technologies, including HRCT, MRI, PET, and AI, have revolutionized chronic respiratory disease diagnosis. The review emphasizes their clinical applications, impact on patient outcomes, and potential for personalized medicine. AI enhances image analysis accuracy, yet challenges like cost and interpretation discrepancies persist. Conclusion: Imaging technologies, particularly HRCT, MRI, PET, and AI, show promise in improving diagnostic accuracy and personalized treatment for chronic respiratory diseases. Collaboration among healthcare professionals, researchers, and industry stakeholders is crucial for addressing challenges and ensuring widespread access to advanced diagnostic tools. Future directions involve refining imaging methods for routine clinical integration, advancing patient care, and reducing the burden of respiratory diseases.
