Nanomedicine, the integration of nanotechnological tools in medicine demonstrated
promising potential to revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of various human health …

Among current modalities of biomedical and diagnostic imaging, MRI stands out by virtue of
its versatile contrast obtained without ionizing radiation. However, in various cases, eg …

Purpose To optimize 3D radial ultrashort echo time MRI for high resolution whole‐lung
imaging. Methods 3D radial ultrashort echo time was implemented on a 3T scanner to …

Zero echo time can be obtained in MRI by performing radiofrequency (RF) excitation as well
as acquisition in the presence of a constant gradient applied for purely frequency‐encoded …

Purpose To quantify regional lung ventilation in healthy volunteers and patients with severe
asthma (both before and after thermoplasty) by using a combination of helium 3 (3He) …

MRI with zero echo time (ZTE) is achieved by 3D radial centre‐out encoding and hard‐pulse
RF excitation while the projection gradient is already on. Targeting short‐T2 samples, the …

Nonuniform disruption of lung architecture is usually assessed by CT, which carries potential
radiation risk. Here we report our use of a three‐dimensional ultrashort echo time MR …

The quantification of sodium MR images from an arbitrary intensity scale into a bioscale
fosters image interpretation in terms of the spatially resolved biochemical process of sodium …

Object The investigation of three-dimensional radial, zero-echo time (TE) imaging for high-
resolution, free-breathing magnetic resonance (MR) lung imaging using prospective and …

Purpose: To investigate the utility of ultra‐short echo time (UTE) sequence as pulmonary
MRI to detect non‐uniform disruption of lung architecture that is typical of emphysema …
