## Abstract Diffusion MRI of hyperpolarized ^3^He shows that the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of ^3^He gas is highly restricted in the normal lung and becomes nearly unrestricted in severe emphysema. The nature of this restricted diffusion provides information about lung structure; however,
