Abstract
Andrea Aliverti, full professor at DEIB - Politecnico di Milano, won one of the Vertex Innove Awards - VIA funding in 2017.
Andrea Aliverti is the lead investigator of the project on the "Assessment of lung function with multivolume 1(h) MR imaging in young CF patients: comparison with radiological, functional and clinical indicators".
The aim of this study is to detect early functional alterations of multiple features of CF, comparing the results with traditional CT.
The long-term view is to provide functional imaging biomarkers.
The Vertex Innovation Awards (VIA) programme is designed to support innovative clinical research in cystic fibrosis (CF) and applications for projects are welcomed from across the entire field of CF. The VIA programme seeks to support patient-oriented clinical research, including interventional, epidemiological and translational studies.
