Genesis Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT): A Preliminary Study
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Genesis Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) imaging system for use in pediatric respiratory disease populations including neuromuscular and bronchopulmonary dysplasia, as well as in age and height matched controls. The EIT does not use radiation, and is read through electrodes.
Longitudinal Natural History Study of Patients With Peroxisome Biogenesis Disorders (PBD)
The Peroxisome Biogenesis Disorders (PBD) are a group of inherited disorders due to defects in peroxisome assembly causing complex developmental and metabolic sequelae. In spite of advancements in peroxisome biology, the pathophysiology remains unknown, the spectrum of phenotypes poorly characterized and the natural history not yet systematically reported. Our aims …
