## Abstract ## Purpose To test the hypothesis that, in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of healthy individuals, equal relative changes in lung volume cause equal relative changes in MR signal intensity of the lung parenchyma. ## Materials and Methods In two experimental runs, 10 volunteers underw
## Abstract ## Purpose To determine whether hyperpolarized heliumβ3 (HHe) diffusion MR can detect the expected enlargement of alveoli that occurs with lung growth during childhood. ## Materials and Methods A total of 29 normal subjects aged four to 30 years underwent HHe diffusion MR imaging wit
## Abstract ## Purpose To investigate the validity of the fetal right lungβtoβliver signal intensity ratio (LLSIR) for prediction of postnatal outcomes in leftβsided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) ## Materials and Methods The study included 14 pregnant women who underwent MR exams for eva
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of respiratory phase on signal intensity of the lung. Lung images were obtained from eleven healthy human volunteers using a multiple inversion recovery segmented turbo spin echo sequence (MIR-TSE). MIR exploits the difference in T(1) between dif
