NCT ID NCT06532071

First seen Apr 23, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study is testing whether special PET and MRI scans can predict how quickly lung scarring (pulmonary fibrosis) will worsen in people with certain lung diseases. Researchers will follow 60 adults for up to 2 years to see if the scans can identify who will develop progressive fibrosis. The goal is to better understand the disease, not to test a new treatment.
