Extrait

The investigators aim to assess whether pulmonary MRI (hyperpolarised 129Xe ventilation imaging [Xe-MRI]) can detect changes in ventilation defects in patients with CF before and after treatment for a pulmonary exacerbation. The investigators will determine whether changes seen using pulmonary Xe-MRI are associated with changes in pulmonary function (spirometry, lung volumes, lung clearance index [LCI]) in patients with CF before and after pulmonary exacerbation.
