Stonemasons who have worked with engineered stone have been shown to develop a rapidly progressive and potentially fatal form of silicosis. This research will use data from affected workers from Victoria, Western Australia and Queensland. The research will comprise a suite of projects to investigate many uncertainties related to radiological screening methods, as well as investigating new methods to assess disease severity and identify indicators of progression to inform future practice.

与工程石材一起工作的石匠已被证明会发展成一种迅速进展且可能致命的矽肺病。这项研究将使用来自维多利亚州、西澳大利亚州和昆士兰州的受影响工人的数据。该研究将包括一系列项目，以调查与放射筛查方法有关的许多不确定性，以及研究评估疾病严重程度和确定进展指标的新方法，为未来的实践提供信息。
