The involvement of the lung periphery in cystic fibrosis : an exploration using multiple-breath nitrogen washout and helium-3 diffusion magnetic resonance
Background: The assessment of cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease requires sensitive, repeatable and safe markers of early involvement of peripheral airways. Multiple-breath washout (MBW) and hyperpolarised 3He magnetic resonance (3HeMR) have been demonstrated to be more sensitive to early changes tha...
