Novel Pulmonary Function Measures for Diagnosis of Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome Following Hematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplantation in Children
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In this study, we will study 129Xe-MRI and LCI as tools for diagnosis of BOS in pediatric patients who have received Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) and have been identified as eligible for this study. Participants will be required to have vital signs collected, complete breathing tests and complete an MRI. The MRI will require participants to perform breath holds in the MRI scanner with xenon gas while being coached by a research assistant.

Group 2 Participants who may or may not have abnormal spirometry; however they do not fulfill the NIH criteria for the development of BOS |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Assessment of MRI [24 months]
Perform xenon MRI, in participants with and without a diagnosis of BOS as defined by NIH criteria.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Correlation [24 months]
Correlate MRI with conventional breathing tests
