NCT ID NCT06066723
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study explores a new type of MRI that uses an inhaled gas to create images of lung ventilation in children ages 6-17. Researchers will compare results between children with mild cystic fibrosis and healthy children to see if the technique is feasible and sensitive to early lung changes. The goal is to improve detection of mild lung disease without radiation.
