Originally proposed as a method to increase sensitivity by extending the locally high-
sensitivity of small surface coil elements to larger areas via reception, the term parallel …

Hyperpolarised gas lung MRI using xenon-129 can provide detailed 3D images of the
ventilated lung airspaces, and can be applied to quantify lung microstructure and detailed …

This review focuses on the state‐of‐the‐art of the three major classes of gas contrast agents
used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)—hyperpolarized (HP) gas, molecular oxygen …

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive pulmonary disease that is ultimately fatal.
Although the diagnosis of IPF has been revolutionized by high-resolution computed …

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of hyperpolarized 129 Xe dose on
image signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and ventilation defect conspicuity on both multi-slice …

Purpose To evaluate the feasibility and utility of a deep learning (DL)‐based reconstruction
for improving the SNR of hyperpolarized 129Xe lung ventilation MRI. Methods 129Xe lung …

Hyperpolarization is an emerging method in magnetic resonance imaging that allows
nuclear spin polarization of gases or liquids to be temporarily enhanced by up to five or six …

In recent years, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, a noninvasive imaging modality, has
been receiving a lot of attention and is particularly attractive for children, mainly because …

PFI Pulmonary Functional Imaging (PFI) refers to visualization and measurement of
ventilation, perfusion, gas flow and exchange as well as biomechanics. In this review, we …

We report the design, construction, and initial tests of a hyperpolariser to produce polarised
129 Xe and 3 He gas for medical imaging of the lung. The hyperpolariser uses the Spin …
