Scientists test inhaled gas to see inside lungs like never before

NCT ID NCT02272049

Summary

This study is testing a new type of MRI scan that uses a safe, inhaled xenon gas to create detailed pictures of how well lungs are working. Researchers want to see if this method works well for both healthy people and those with breathing problems, including children as young as 6. Participants will breathe in the gas and hold their breath for a short time during the scan to help create the images.
