Functional lung imaging: emerging methods to visualize regional pulmonary physiology1

WB Gefter, H Hatabu - Academic Radiology, 2003 - academicradiology.org
This is a particularly exciting era for thoracic imaging. Rapidly evolving technical advances
in CT and MR are enabling increasingly sophisticated capabilities for pulmonary functional
imaging. Such functional methods were formerly largely limited to radionuclide scanning. A
great advantage of these imaging techniques is their ability to provide information on
regional lung function, including ventilation/perfusion, spirometric, and biomechanical
parameters. The ability of these imaging techniques to spatially map these functional …
