Synopsis
Phase resolved functional lung imaging (PREFUL) was carried out before and 12 weeks after commencement of Kaftrio® therapy in a small Cystic Fibrosis (CF) group, and in healthy controls (HC). No significant differences were found in measures characterising the PREFUL signal between HC and CF, or before and after Kaftrio® therapy. This could be explained by the small sample size or lack of age matching. It was found that fractional ventilation measures with PREFUL can be sensitive to subjective thresholding and the method of image registration. Also, the impact of irregular breathing patterns, especially in patients, should be further explored.
