In this paper we demonstrate that gradient echo MRI with hyperpolarized 3He gas can be
used for simultaneously extracting in vivo information about lung ventilation properties …

Quantitative measurement of lung microstructure is of great significance in assessment of
pulmonary disease, particularly in the earliest stages. The technique for MRI‐based 3He …

Purpose Parallel imaging can be used to reduce imaging time and to increase the spatial
coverage in hyperpolarized gas magnetic resonance imaging of the lung. In this proof‐of …

The structure and integrity of pulmonary acinar airways and their changes in different
diseases are of great importance and interest to a broad range of physiologists and …

The purpose of this study was to assess the properties of a model system for hyperpolarized
He-3 (HHe) diffusion MR imaging created from the lungs of New Zealand white rabbits by …

Purpose To evaluate the use of spin‐tagging in conjunction with hyperpolarized gas
