简要总结
Healthy elderly subjects male and female aged 65-85 will undergo MRI, lung function and exercise testing for the development of tools to quantify and validate longitudinal in vivo magnetic resonance imaging phenotypes of the aging lung.
详细描述
Briefly, during a single four hour visit, subjects will perform: 1) physical exam, 2) full pulmonary function tests, 3) cycle ergometry, 4) dyspnea and exertions scores using Borg scales, 5) BOLD Questionnaire and 6) 3He MRI before and after bronchodilation by deep inspiration, and potentially 25 minutes after inhalation of 2 puffs (200 µg) of the short-acting bronchodilator salbutamol in subjects who do not respond with 3He MRI ventilation improvements to deep inhalation. Hand-held spirometry will be performed post deep inspiration, and post salbutamol in those who receive salbutamol.
Subjects will first provide written informed consent and then be screened for MRI compatibility and will complete dyspnea and exertion scales, and full pulmonary function tests. A physical exam including vital signs and medical and smoking history will be performed. Subjects will complete the Bold Occupational Questionnaire and rest for approximately 15 minutes before cycle ergometry, including pre-and-post Borg scale evaluations. After completion of cycle ergometry, subjects will rest upright for 15 minutes and prepare for MRI which will be performed on 3 occasions within 1 hour: 1) before deep inspiration, 2) 3 minutes later after deep inspiration and, 3) 25 minutes later after inhalation of 2 puffs of salbutamol in subjects who do not respond to deep inhalation. Images obtained post deep inhalation will be assessed on the spot to determine if administration of salbutamol is required to resolve ventilation defects. Hand-held spirometry will also be performed post deep inspiration and post salbutamol in those who receive salbutamol.

结局指标
主要结局
Ventilation Defect Percent (VDP)
时间窗: 3 years
Whole lung and segmental 3He MRI ventilation defect percent (VDP) are calculated by normalizing the volumes of 3He ventilation defects to the spatially matched CT whole lung and lung segments
次要结局
- Apparent Diffusion Coefficients (ADC)(3 years)
