Reproducibility of fractional ventilation derived by Fourier decomposition after adjusting for tidal volume with and without an MRI compatible spirometer.

abstract：:Although promising for visualizing the structure of ordered tissues, MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been hampered by long acquisition time and low spatial resolution associated with its inherently low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Moreover, the uncertainty in the DTI measurements has a direct impact on the accur...

abstract：:The use of paramagnetic pH-sensitive liposomes was recently suggested as a new approach for monitoring pathologic changes in pH by MRI. Such liposomes must be stable in blood and selectively release the encapsulated paramagnetic agent when exposed to lower pH in the target tissue. In the present study, different lipos...
