First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study tested whether a special MRI technique can measure lung scarring (fibrosis) in people with scleroderma. 24 adults with scleroderma had MRI scans of their lungs while breathing in and out. The goal was to see if MRI could provide a safe, radiation-free way to track lung damage, compared to the usual CT scans and breathing tests.
