Purpose:
Dr. Baca and her team are conducting a study to develop and evaluate an experimental magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology. The experimental MRI technique uses a whole-body MRI, which is commonly used, and a computer program that is in development. The computer program makes the MRI capture images faster and can still capture images when a person is not completely still. We want to see if this MRI technique is accurate and if it can detect signs of cancer in children with NF-1.

Who is eligible?
• Children and adolescents diagnosed with NF-1
• Ages 5 to 17 years old
