MRI may offer Radiation-Free diagnosis for lung fungal allergy
NCT ID NCT03265366
First seen May 21, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tested whether MRI can accurately detect lung abnormalities caused by allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), a fungal allergy. Researchers compared MRI results to standard CT scans in 25 adults with ABPA or severe asthma. If MRI works well, it could provide a safer, radiation-free way to diagnose and monitor ABPA.

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 MRI proves accurate, it could offer a radiation-free alternative to CT scans for diagnosing ABPA.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 25 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. MRI might not detect all signs of ABPA as well as CT scans.
