Summary
This study tested whether a safe, radiation-free imaging method called electrical impedance tomography (EIT) can detect lung damage in children and young adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). Researchers compared EIT results to CT scans and checked if EIT could track treatment response. The study included 48 participants aged 3-21, both healthy and with CF.
