Overview

This study intends to use magnetic resonance pulmonary function imaging technology to explore imaging markers for early diagnosis of patients with CPFE. Through baseline, 6-month and 12-month follow-up examinations, the changes in magnetic resonance pulmonary function in patients with CPFE and their correlation with disease progression were explored.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• (1) Chest HRCT shows emphysema mainly distributed in the upper lung field, manifesting as wallless or thin-walled (wall thickness <1 mm) low-transmittance areas with clear boundaries with normal tissue, or multiple bullae (diameter > 1 cm), and the emphysema area/total lung volume is ≥10%; (2) interstitial pulmonary fibrosis mainly distributed in the lower lung field and subpleura, manifesting as honeycomb shadow or grid shadow, and the lung structure is destroyed , may be accompanied by traction bronchiectasis, ground glass opacities and consolidation opacities.

Exclusion Criteria:

• (1) Refusal to sign the informed consent form; (2) MRI contraindications (implanted pacemaker/defibrillator, claustrophobia, or any clinical condition that prohibits longer MRI examinations).
