Summary

Modern imaging modalities, especially magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have greatly advanced in recent years. Through technical advances, proton-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has steadily increased in use to assess pulmonary structures in the pediatric population especially in Europe. Such technical developments have advanced by overcoming rapid decaying of transverse relaxation time and cardiac/chest movement synchronization, showing MRI to be feasible with respect to morphological and functional assessment of pulmonary impairment, in chronic lung disease such as cystic fibrosis for disease progression and prediction of exacerbation. However pulmonary imaging with MRI has also been feasible to detect pulmonary nodules in malignancies (allowing for spatial resolution).
