MRI study of lung differences in cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses MRI scanning to better understand how the lungs differ in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) and in people with non-CF bronchiectasis. The results may help doctors understand disease changes over time and guide future care, especially for children and teens.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 5 or older
- If you have CF: your CF diagnosis is confirmed by a sweat test result above 60 mMol/L
- If you have CF: you either have two known disease-causing CFTR gene changes, or you have proven lung/organ effects of CF
- Be willing and able to have an MRI (no non-MRI-safe metal implants and you can tolerate the MRI space)
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you cannot join

This study uses MRI scans to monitor lung health in teens and young adults with cystic fibrosis who are taking Trikafta. It aims to find better ways to track how the disease affects the lungs over time.
This study uses a special MRI technique (19F MRI) to look at how well your lungs are working and where any blockages are. The goal is to understand airway problems in cystic fibrosis better.
This trial uses a special breathing MRI (you breathe a gas mixture) to measure how well your lungs work. It studies healthy kids and people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis or asthma, and it may help researchers better understand lung function and flare-ups.
This study looks at new “imaging biomarkers” (MRI measurements) in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). It mainly aims to see how MRI findings might relate to starting the recommended CF triple-combination therapy.
This Phase 1 study tests a lung scan that uses a special gas and MRI to measure how well your lungs work. It includes healthy volunteers and people with lung disease to see how well the scan works and how safe it is.
This study looks at how where your body stores fat may be linked to changes in metabolism and lung function over time in people with cystic fibrosis. It also compares results with healthy people similar in age, sex, and body size to understand the differences better.
