Purpose: To validate a fast gradient echo sequence for rapid (9 s) quantitative imaging of
lung water. Materials and Methods: Eleven excised pig lungs were imaged with a fast GRE …

The purpose of this study was to validate water content measurements and to determine the
T2 distribution in lung on a 1.5 T clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. A …

The aim of this study was to develop a magnetic resonance (MR) sequence capable of
measuring water content and the gravity-dependent gradient in lung density in normal lung …

Purpose To evaluate lung water density at three different levels of lung inflation in normal
lungs using a fast gradient echo sequence developed for rapid imaging. Materials and …

PURPOSE We aimed to develop a predictive model for lung water content using ultrashort
echo time (UTE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a sponge phantom. MATERIALS …

NMR imaging techniques are applicable to the assessment of lung water content and
distribution because the NMR signal is, under certain conditions, proportional to tissue …

Purpose Exercise‐induced dyspnea caused by lung water is an early heart failure symptom.
Dynamic lung water quantification during exercise is therefore of interest to detect early …

We have developed a new analytical method that uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)
imaging data to quantify lung water content and distribution. This new method generates a …

An accurate, non-invasive means of measuring pulmonary water is desirable, for both
clinical and research use. Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging is theoretically very suitable …

Background Quantitative assessment of dynamic lung water accumulation is of interest to
unmask latent heart failure. We develop and validate a free-breathing 3D ultrashort echo …
