Imaging Measures of Respiratory Health Registry

This is a prospective, observational cohort registry that aims to collect data on pulmonary structure and function in healthy people and those with respiratory disease, using structural and functional pulmonary 1H-MRI and hyperpolarized 129Xe-MRI.

Outcome measures generated from MRI may include but are not limited to measures of regional ventilation, pulmonary microarchitecture, and regional gas exchange. Additionally, one of the goals of the registry is to facilitate the development of novel image analysis techniques that have not yet been invented.

These data will be stored along with demographic data, clinical data, and pulmonary function testing (PFT) data.

This is an open registry. Eligible local and international investigators/institutions can apply for access.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Respiratory Disease

Inclusion criteria

  • Physician-diagnosed lung disease - based on a diagnosis made by a treating staff physician and confirmed by the principal investigator.
  • Age 0-99 years.
  • Informed consent by participant, parent, or legal guardian
  • In the opinion of the Investigator, the participant will likely be able to perform maneuvers to obtain technically acceptable pulmonary XeMRI images.

Exclusion criteria

  • Physical findings at screening that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would compromise the safety of the participant or the quality of the research data.
  • Requirement of supplementary oxygen to maintain an oxygen saturation above 95%.
  • Failed MRI screening form.
  • History of claustrophobia.
  • Known current pregnancy or lactation.

Treatment and study plan

1H and Xe-129 MRI

Diagnostic Test

Traditional 1H-MRI (room air inhalation) and Xe-129 MRI (requires inhalation of Xenon 129 gas).

Primary outcomes

  1. Structural proton (1H) MRI data

    Time frame: no predefined schedule in this open registry study; maximum 25 visits, over up to 25 years

    Includes all proton MRI images collected to assess pulmonary structure. Data may be analysed qualitatively and quantitatively.

  2. Functional proton (1H) MRI data

    Time frame: no predefined schedule in this open registry study; maximum 25 visits, over up to 25 years

    Includes all proton MRI images collected to assess pulmonary function. Data may be analysed qualitatively and quantitatively.

  3. Functional hyperpolarized 129-xenon (129Xe) MRI data

    Time frame: no predefined schedule in this open registry study; maximum 25 visits, over up to 25 years

    Includes all proton images collected to assess pulmonary function. Data may be analysed qualitatively and quantitatively.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Resting oxygen saturation

    Time frame: no predefined schedule in this open registry study; maximum 25 visits, over up to 25 years

  2. CFQ-R Respiratory domain

    Time frame: no predefined schedule in this open registry study; maximum 25 visits, over up to 25 years

    Only for participants with cystic fibrosis

  3. St. George Respiratory Questionnaire

    Time frame: no predefined schedule in this open registry study; maximum 25 visits, over up to 25 years

    Only for participants with Respiratory disease.
