Evaluation and Treatment Planning of Patients With PAP Using Thrive Ultra Short Echo Time MRI and CT

NCT02081092 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 9

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is twofold: to assess routine cat scan (CT) imaging as a biomarker for removal of lipoprotein surfactant via lung lavage (where CT is the gold-standard imaging technique for density quantification), and to utilize a novel UTE MRI protocol to similarly quantify surfactant removal. This study will also serve to generate baseline scanning that may aid in developing analytical tools to evaluate and treat specific lung regions of patients with PAP.
