To assess airway and lung parenchymal damage noninvasively in cystic fibrosis (CF), chest MRI has been historically out of the scope of routine clinical imaging because of technical difficulties such as low proton density and respiratory and cardiac motion. However, technological breakthroughs have emerged that dramatically improve lung MRI quality (including signal-to-noise ratio, resolution, speed, and contrast). At the same time, novel treatments have changed the landscape of CF clinical care. In this contemporary context, there is now consensus that lung MRI can be used clinically to assess CF in a radiation-free manner and to enable quantification of lung disease severity. MRI can now achieve three-dimensional, high-resolution morphologic imaging, and beyond this morphologic information, MRI may offer the ability to sensitively differentiate active inflammation vs scarring tissue. MRI could also characterize various forms of inflammation for early guidance of treatment. Moreover, functional information from MRI can be used to assess regional, small-airway disease with sensitivity to detect small changes even in patients with mild CF. Finally, automated quantification methods have emerged to support conventional visual analyses for more objective and reproducible assessment of disease severity. This article aims to review the most recent developments of lung MRI, with a focus on practical application and clinical value in CF, and the perspectives on how these modern techniques may converge and impact patient care soon.
