NCT02606487 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators aim to assess whether pulmonary MRI (hyperpolarised 129Xe ventilation imaging \[Xe-MRI\]) can detect changes in ventilation defects in patients with CF before and after treatment for a pulmonary exacerbation. The investigators will determine whether changes seen using pulmonary Xe-MRI are associated with changes in pulmonary function (spirometry, lung volumes, lung clearance index \[LCI\]) in patients with CF before and after pulmonary exacerbation.
