Summary
This study tests a new, radiation-free imaging method to measure how fast food moves through the gut in children with chronic constipation or Hirschsprung's disease. About 20 children and some healthy adults will drink a special dye (ICG) and get scanned with MSOT and MRI. The goal is to find which part of the bowel is slow, so doctors can choose better treatments like nerve stimulation.
