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 …

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 …

Purpose An efficient Yarnball ultrashort‐TE k‐space trajectory, in combination with an
optimized pulse sequence design and automated image‐processing approach, is proposed …

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 …

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 …

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 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 To implement and assess the performance of three‐dimensional (3D) ultra‐short
echo (UTE) time for evaluating lung tissue density changes induced by gravity dependence …

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 …

In their recent paper describing the regional measurement of lung water using nuclear
magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging, MacLennan et al (1986) fail to discuss adequately two …
