First seen Feb 19, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study explores a new type of MRI that uses a harmless gas to create images of lung function in children aged 6-17 with mild cystic fibrosis and healthy children. The goal is to see if this technique is practical and acceptable for kids, and to compare it with standard lung tests. The research does not offer treatment but aims to improve how early lung disease is detected.
