Regional Heterogeneity of Lobar Ventilation in Asthma Using Hyperpolarized Helium-3 MRI

To determine lobar ventilation patterns in asthmatic lungs with hyperpolarized 3He magnetic resonance imaging (HP 3He MRI). Eighty-two subjects (14 normal, 48 mild-to-moderate asthma, and 20 severe asthma) underwent HP 3He MRI, computed tomography (CT), and pulmonary function testing. After register...
