Hyperpolarized noble gas magnetic resonance imaging of the animal lung: Approaches and applications
- Abstract:
-
Hyperpolarized noble gas (HNG) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is a very promising noninvasive tool for the investigation of animal models of lung disease, particularly to follow longitudinal changes in lung function and anatomy without the accumulated radiation dose associated with x rays. The two most common noble gases for this purpose are 3He (helium 3) and 129Xe (xenon 129), the latter providing a cost-effective approach for clinical applications. Hyperpolarization is typically achieved ...
