Comparison of hyperpolarized (3)He MRI rat lung volume measurement with micro-computed tomography.
In this study, the upper-limit volume (gas plus partial tissue volume) as well as absolute volume (gas only) of lungs measured with hyperpolarized (3)He-MR imaging is compared with that determined by micro-computed tomography (CT) under similar ventilation conditions in normal rats. Five Brown Norwa...
