Summary

The main objective of this study is to investigate the utility of functional MRI to differentiate, characterize, and monitor subgroups of ILD. This can be broken down into three specific objectives:

Determine if ILD features observed on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), such as ground glass opacities (GGO), are functionally different.

Analyse MRI metrics within each subgroup to determine whether these metrics distinguish different ILDs.

Assess MRI metrics longitudinally to see if these parameters change with disease progression, stability, or reversibility.

Conditions

  • Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD)

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Lung MRI Protocol with Functional and Contrast-Enhanced Sequences

Participants will undergo a lung MRI protocol consisting of structural imaging, non-contrast functional imaging, and contrast-enhanced imaging. Some sequences are custom-developed and performed during free breathing to accommodate patients with respiratory limitations.
