The purpose of this statement is to describe and define the phenotypic abnormalities that
can be identified on visual and quantitative evaluation of computed tomographic (CT) …

The invention of hyperpolarized (HP) noble gas MRI using helium-3 (3 He) or xenon-129
(129 Xe) has provided a new method to evaluate lung function. Using HP 3 He or 129 Xe for …

Computed tomography (CT) has contributed substantially to our understanding of COPD
over the past decade. Visual and quantitative assessments of CT in COPD are …

Purpose: The aim of the study was to determine whether hyperpolarized 3 He diffusion-
weighted magnetic resonance imaging detects abnormalities in the lungs in children with …

Purpose: To investigate the effect of using different computed tomography (CT) scanners on
the accuracy of high‐resolution CT (HRCT) images in classifying regional disease patterns …

The assessment of early pulmonary disease and its severity can be difficult in young
children, as procedures such as spirometry cannot be performed on them. Computed …

Hyperpolarized (HP) gases are a new class of contrast agents that permit to obtain high
temporal and spatial resolution magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of the lung airspaces …

Objective The aim of this study was to objectify changes in volume and density of treated
and untreated pulmonary lobes following endobronchial coiling for lung volume reduction by …

Los gases hiperpolarizados (HP) son una nueva clase de agentes de contraste que
permiten obtener imágenes por resonancia magnética (RM) de alta resolución temporal y …

Early pulmonary disease and pulmonary disease severity can be difficult to assess in the
pediatric population. Young children are usually unable to perform the breathing maneuvers …
