“Lung perfusion” in the context of imaging conventionally refers to the delivery of blood to the
pulmonary capillary bed through the pulmonary arteries originating from the right ventricle …

Recent imaging studies using chest computed tomography (CT) in presymptomatic infants
and young children with cystic fibrosis (CF) diagnosed by newborn screening presented …

Rationale: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) contributes to disease burden of patients with cystic
fibrosis (CF). However, its onset and progression in infants and preschool children with CF …

Purpose Monitoring of regional lung function in interventional COPD trials requires
alternative endpoints beyond global parameters such as FEV1. T1 relaxation times of the …

Background Chest imaging is essential in the assessment of respiratory disease in cystic
fibrosis (CF). High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) can detect progressive lung …

Inflammation is a common feature in several types of lung disease and is a frequent end
point to validate lung disease models, evaluate genetic or environmental impact on disease …

Background Lung magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with ultrashort echo‐times (UTE‐MRI)
allows high‐resolution and radiation‐free imaging of the lung structure in cystic fibrosis (CF) …

The availability of highly effective CFTR modulators is revolutionizing the treatment of cystic
fibrosis (CF) and drastically improving outcomes. MRI-based imaging modalities are now …

Background Noninvasive monitoring of early abnormalities and therapeutic intervention in
cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease using MRI is important. Lung T1 mapping has shown …

Purpose To assess the feasibility of monitoring the effects of elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor
