Direct visualisation of collateral ventilation in COPD with hyperpolarised gas MRI

BackgroundCollateral ventilation has been proposed as a mechanism of compensation of respiratory function in obstructive lung diseases but observations of it in vivo are limited. The assessment of collateral ventilation with an imaging technique might help to gain insight into lung physiology and as...
