Summary

The purpose of this study is to use perfluorinated gas imaging to highlight regions of functional variation within the lungs of participants with cystic fibrosis (CF), and to correlate this with changes in spirometry, lung clearance index, and quality of life of CF subjects undergoing treatment for a pulmonary exacerbation.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Lung Clearance Index

To assess the efficiency of ventilation distribution and gas mixing by measuring the rate of clearance of an inert gas (nitrogen) from the lungs.

DRUG

MRI with PFP

* Description: inhaled PFP, a gaseous contrast agent (79% PFP, 21% O2, pre-mixed, medical grade gas) * Administration: Full-face disposable ventilation mask and a standard Douglas Bag system. * Dosage: Two controlled breaths of contrast gas followed by a full breath and a 12-second breath-hold and scan for image acquisition. * Frequency: Repeated 5 times followed by an identical five cycles with room air to ensure PFP gas wash-out has occurred.
