Thoracic Insufficiency Syndrome Clinical Trial
Official title:
New Strategies for Pulmonary Assessment in Spinal and Chest Wall Deformity
Thoracic insufficiency syndrome (TIS) is a complex condition that involves chest wall deformities that can affect normal breathing and lung growth. In most cases, children with TIS are also born with spine disorders such as scoliosis. The inability of the thorax to support normal respiration or lung growth can cause respiratory distress and even mortality. Investigators aim to validate MRI imaging sequences to use as an assessment tool for pulmonary function.
