Official title
Pilot Study of a New Technique for Assessing Mucociliary Clearance and Airway Surface Liquid Volume in Cystic Fibrosis
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this study is to determine the effect of airway surface liquid (ASL) volume on mucociliary clearance in cystic fibrosis (CF). A two-isotope nuclear medicine technique will be utilized. This pilot trial will include the imaging of n=7 CF subjects and n=7 healthy subjects. The trial will include one study visit per subject that will take approximately 3 hours. Hypothesis: The simultaneous imaging of both a "floating" and a "penetrating" radioisotope tag will allow the relative effect of airway surface liquid volume on mucociliary clearance to be determined when evaluated in CF and normal subjects.
