NCT ID NCT05041140

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing a new type of MRI that uses xenon gas to see how well the lungs are working in people who have had a bone marrow transplant. Researchers will scan 25 transplant patients with or without lung problems, plus 10 healthy volunteers. The goal is to see if this MRI can detect early signs of lung disease better than standard tests.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a better way to detect lung problems early in transplant patients, potentially improving treatment timing.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage imaging study with only 25 participants. It is not testing a treatment, so it cannot directly improve health outcomes.
