NCT ID NCT06066723

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

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.
