Chest MR imaging in the follow-up of pulmonary alterations in paediatric patients with middle lobe syndrome: comparison with chest X-ray

Abstract: Patients with middle lobe syndrome show a wide range of parenchymal and bronchial abnormalities at diagnosis. Compared with MR imaging, chest X-ray seems to underestimate these changes. Chest MR imaging might represent a feasible and radiation-free option for an overall assessment of the lung in the follow-up of patients with middle lobe syndrome.

“…Acquisition time highly depends on the regularity of the breathing pattern when using a prospective data acquisition scheme [ 19 ]. This technique has been used in children as young as 4 years old without sedation [ 20 ].
