MRI of the lung (3/3)-current applications and future perspectives [PDF]
BackgroundMRI of the lung is recommended in a number of clinical indications. Having a non-radiation alternative is particularly attractive in children and young subjects, or pregnant women.MethodsProvided there is sufficient expertise, magnetic ...

Perfusion of the interventricular septum during ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) [PDF]
Objective: To determine whether regional hypoperfusion of the interventricular septum occurs during ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure. Design: Animal study. Animals: Anesthetized, closed chest dogs (n = 8).

Pulmonary ventilation and perfusion assessed by electrical impedance tomography - Experimental studies in pigs [PDF]
Pulmonary ventilation and perfusion and ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) matching determine gas exchange in every lung unit in the healthy state and in the pathologically altered lung. Mismatch of V and Q lead to hypoxaemia and hypercapnia and monitoring of V/

Variations Between Dose-Ventilation and Dose-Perfusion Metrics in Radiation Therapy Planning for Lung Cancer [PDF]
PurposeCurrently, several active clinical trials of functional lung avoidance radiation therapy using different imaging modalities for ventilation or perfusion are underway. Patients with lung cancer often show ventilation-perfusion mismatch, whereas the

In vivo MR imaging of pulmonary perfusion and gas exchange in rats via continuous extracorporeal infusion of hyperpolarized 129Xe. [PDF]
Hyperpolarized (HP) (129)Xe magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) permits high resolution, regional visualization of pulmonary ventilation. Additionally, its reasonably high solubility (>10%) and large chemical shift range (>200 ppm) in tissues allow HP (129 ...
