MR tagging of human lungs using hyperpolarized 3He gas

Purpose To evaluate the use of spin‐tagging in conjunction with hyperpolarized gas imaging for monitoring lung ventilation and gas diffusion. Methods and Materials Images were taken at 0.15 T using single shot RARE, with hyperpolarized 3He gas prepared by the metastability exchange technique. Sinuso...
