Doctors test breakthrough 'Gas MRI' to safely scan newborn lungs

NCT ID NCT04995562

Summary

This study is testing a new, safer MRI scan for babies in the NICU with lung problems. Instead of using X-rays or CT scans that expose infants to radiation, doctors use a special, safe xenon gas that the baby breathes in during the MRI to create detailed pictures of the lungs. The goal is to see if this method works well and is safe for getting clear images to help diagnose lung conditions without the risks of radiation.
