The College has developed an Experts in Occupational Dust Lung Disease (EODLD) list, which has replaced the Coal Workers Pneumoconiosis Register. The EODLD list will provide the names of clinical radiologists and the practices and hospitals through which they can be accessed. The list intends to cover all occupational dust lung diseases that require reporting in line with ILO Classification such as coal workers pneumoconiosis, silicosis and asbestos-related lung disease. It is not intended to change normal clinical practice, for example referrals for chest radiology under Medicare.

Any RANZCR members with an interest in occupational dust lung diseases are invited to join the EODLD list by completing and submitting the application form.

Stakeholders interested in the EODLD list or for further information please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
