Аннотация
A new method for dynamic imaging of pulmonary wash-in and wash-out kinetics of inhaled sulfur hexafluoride (SF(6)) gas was developed. Measurements at the fluorine-19 Larmor frequency were performed in pigs using a gradient echo pulse sequence with 0.5 ms echo time and a measurement time of 9.1 s per image. Dynamic MRI was performed during wash-in and wash-out of SF(6) gas in mechanically ventilated porcine lungs. A postprocessing strategy was developed for quantitative determination of wash-out time constants in the presence of noise. Mean wash-out constants were 4.78 +/- 0.48 breaths vs. 4.33 +/- 0.76 breaths for left and right lung when ventilation was performed with low tidal volume, and 1.73 +/- 0.16 breaths vs. 1.85 +/- 0.11 breaths with high tidal volume ventilation. In conclusion, breath-hold MRI of SF(6) gas is feasible in large animals. Moreover, regional wash-in and wash-out kinetics of SF(6) can be determined noninvasively with this new method. Potential human applications are discussed. Magn Reson Med 45:605-613, 2001.
