129Xe Image Processing Pipeline: An open‐source, graphical user interface application for the analysis of hyperpolarized 129Xe MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 93, Issue 3, Page 1220-1237, March 2025.
Abstract Purpose Hyperpolarized 129Xe MRI presents opportunities to assess regional pulmonary microstructure and function. Ongoing advancements in hardware, sequences, and image processing have helped it become increasingly adopted for both research and clinical use. As the number of applications and users increase, standardization becomes crucial.

Endoscopic polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) for in-vivo imaging of lungs periphery in bronchial thermoplasty treated asthma patients

, 2021
We performed in-vivo PS-OCT in three asthma patients who underwent bronchial thermoplasty (BT). PS-OCT qualified as minimally invasive technique to visualize airway smooth muscle (ASM) and showed its reduction after ...

Ultrasensitive 129Xe Magnetic Resonance Imaging: From Clinical Monitoring to Molecular Sensing

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 8, February 24, 2025.
Ultrasensitive 129Xe magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a novel clinically approved technology that overcomes the sensitivity limitations of traditional 1H MRI by introducing hyperpolarized 129Xe as the signal source. This review summarizes recent advancements in 129Xe MRI, covering its principles, methodologies, applications ranging from clinical ...

A method for MRI‐guided bronchoscopy to identify obstructed airway segments

Physiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, February 2025.
Image guided bronchoscopy using MRI and CT (Methods, left) can identify regions of airway injury (Results, right) to evaluate cellular and molecular phenotypes of asthma. Abstract Bronchoscopy is not conventionally guided by prior knowledge of segmental airway obstruction.

Asthma control during the year after bronchial thermoplasty.

, 2007
BACKGROUND: Bronchial thermoplasty is a bronchoscopic procedure to reduce the mass of airway smooth muscle and attenuate bronchoconstriction. We examined the effect of bronchial thermoplasty on the control of moderate or severe persistent asthma. METHODS:

Machine learning‐enhanced HRCT analysis for diagnosis and severity assessment in pediatric asthma

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 59, Issue 12, Page 3268-3277, December 2024.
Abstract Objectives Chest high‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is conditionally recommended to rule out conditions that mimic or coexist with severe asthma in children. However, it may provide valuable insights into identifying structural airway changes in pediatric patients.
