Electrical Impedance Imaging of Patients With Cystic Fibrosis

NCT02524704 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 44

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this feasibility study is to evaluate the ability of Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) for providing regional and quantitative information about the extent and nature of bronchial obstruction in patients with cystic fibrosis. It is not being conducted to diagnose, treat, prevent, or cure any kind of disease. In electrical impedance tomography low amplitude, low frequency current is applied on electrodes, and the resulting voltage is measured and used to computed the electrical properties of the interior of the chest as they change in time. The computed properties are used to form an image, which can then be used for monitoring and diagnosis.
