Breath-hold MRI scan to measure lung function
This study uses a special MRI scan with a harmless gas to take pictures of your lungs. It may help doctors see how well your lungs are working, which could guide future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You can hold your breath for 16 seconds.
- You have a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 40.
- You are generally healthy with no chronic lung or heart conditions.
- You have no metal implants or devices that are not MRI-safe.
- You can perform breathing tests (spirometry) reliably.

This study uses a special gas called xenon to take pictures of your lungs with MRI, a safe imaging method. It aims to improve lung imaging for future patients, and you may participate if you are generally healthy.
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 uses MRI pictures to learn how asthma affects breathing and lung function. If you have asthma and can do breathing tests, you may be asked to take part to help researchers understand asthma better.
This study uses special MRI scans with a gas you breathe in (xenon) and CT scans to see how well anti-fibrotic treatment is working in people with lung scarring (fibrotic interstitial lung disease). If you have this condition and are planning to start or continue treatment, this study could help doctors understand if the treatment is helping your lungs.
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 Phase 2 study uses a special type of MRI with inhaled gas to measure how well your lungs work. It may help researchers better understand lung function in healthy people and in people with lung disease.
