Hyperpolarized (HP) 129Xe MRI uniquely images pulmonary ventilation, gas exchange, and terminal airway morphology rapidly and safely, providing novel information not possible …
Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease which carries high morbidity and mortality from lung-function decline. Monitoring disease progression and treatment response …
Background To support translational lung MRI research with hyperpolarized 129Xe gas, comprehensive evaluation of derived quantitative lung function measures against …
Purpose To obtain whole lung morphometry measurements from 129Xe in a single breath‐ hold with 3D multiple b‐value 129Xe diffusion‐weighted MRI (DW‐MRI) with an empirically …
Multiple thoracic imaging modalities have been developed to link structure to function in the diagnosis and monitoring of lung disease. Volumetric computed tomography (CT) renders …
Pulmonary functional magnetic resonance imaging (PfMRI) provides a way to non-invasively map and measure the spatial distribution of pulmonary ventilation, perfusion and gas …
There have been significant advancements in the various imaging techniques being used for the evaluation of asthmatic patients, both from a clinical and research perspective …
Background MRI with inhaled hyperpolarized helium 3 (3He) allows for functional and structural imaging of the lungs. Hyperpolarized gas diffusion-weighted (DW) MRI provides …
