NCT ID NCT05339386
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a special MRI that uses inhaled xenon gas to take detailed pictures of lung function in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Ten adults with PAH had four scans over 18 weeks to see how their lungs processed the gas. The goal was to find new ways to measure treatment effects and improve future care.
