Progressive lung disease in cystic fibrosis (CF) is the life-limiting factor of this autosomal
recessive genetic disorder. Increasing implementation of CF newborn screening allows for a …

Bronchiectasis is a common feature of severe inherited and acquired pulmonary disease
conditions. Among inherited diseases, cystic fibrosis (CF) is the major disorder associated …

Pulmonary MRI provides structural and quantitative functional images of the lungs without
ionizing radiation, but it has had limited clinical use due to low signal intensity from the lung …

Objectives With the COVID-19 pandemic, repetitive lung examinations have become
necessary to follow-up symptoms and associated alterations. Low-field MRI, benefiting from …

Background Perfusion‐weighted (Qw) noncontrast‐enhanced proton lung MRI is a
promising technique for assessment of pulmonary perfusion, but still requires validation …

Pediatric chest MRI is challenging. High-resolution scans of the lungs and airways are
compromised by long imaging times, low lung proton density and motion. Low signal is a …

Rationale and Objectives Phase resolved functional lung (PREFUL) magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) is a free-breathing 1 H-based technique that produces maps of fractional …

Purpose To present an improved and robust method of pulmonary function assessment from
time‐resolved proton MRI using a matrix pencil (MP) method in combination with a linear …

Conventional pulmonary function tests appear normal in early cystic fibrosis (CF) lung
disease. Therefore, new diagnostic approaches are required that can detect CF lung …

Purpose This study aimed to develop a 3D MRI technique to assess lung ventilation in free‐
breathing and without the administration of contrast agent. Methods A 3D‐UTE sequence …
