Natural History Study of Cutaneous Neurofibromas in People With NF1

People diagnosed with NF1 may develop cutaneous neurofibromas, also known as cNFs. These benign tumors can cause discomfort and affect a person's quality of life. Researchers at Johns Hopkins are studying how cNF tumors form, grow and change over time. This information may help doctors in the future, provide early interventions and improve quality of life for NF1 patients. Researchers will also explore a new way of monitoring cNF with 3D camera technology. People of all ages with NF1, living in the United States, are invited to participate in this important research study.
