This work is to investigate the feasibility of compressed sensing (CS) on the morphologic
measurement of lung microstructure using hyperpolarized 129 Xe diffusion magnetic …

Hyperpolarised gases have been most recently used in magnetic resonance imaging to
demonstrate new image-derived pulmonary function parameters. One of these parameters is …

Lung diseases affect the lives of millions of people across the UK and result in the
thousands of deaths every year. It is therefore vitally important to continue to develop a wide …

RATIONALE: lung function map simultaneously displaying pertinent functional and structural
information in a voxel-wise manner is needed. For example, interventions that restore to a …

Abstract Background Hyperpolarized (HP) 129Xe multiple b‐values diffusion‐weighted
magnetic resonance imaging (DW‐MRI) has been widely used for quantifying pulmonary …

Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) MRI using hyperpolarized 3He has been established as
a radiation free alternative to Computerized Tomography in evaluating pulmonary …

Hyperpolarized gas magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) generates highly detailed maps of
lung ventilation and physiological function while CT provides corresponding anatomical and …

Lung morphometry with hyperpolarized helium-3 MRI is a highly sensitive technique for the
non-invasive measurement of alveolar microstructural parameters. Herein, we establish the …

The use of pulmonary MRI in a clinical setting has historically been limited. Whilst CT
remains the gold-standard for structural lung imaging in many clinical indications, technical …

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 …
