Assessment of pulmonary structure –function relationships in young children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis by multivolume proton‐MRI and CT

ConclusionMultivolume noncontrast‐enhanced MRI, as a nonionizing imaging modality that can be used on nearly any MRI scanner without specialized equipment or gaseous tracers, may be particularly valuable in CF care, providing a new imaging biomarker to detect early alterations in regional lung structure–function.Level of Evidence: 3Technical Efficacy: Stage 3J.
