Functional imaging in lung cancer
Lung cancer represents an increasingly frequent cancer diagnosis worldwide. An increasing awareness on smoking cessation as an important mean to reduce lung cancer incidence and mortality, an increasing number of therapy options and a steady focus on early diagnosis and adequate staging have resulted in a modestly improved survival. For early diagnosis and precise staging, imaging, especially p...
متن کاملFunctional lung imaging in thoracic cancer radiotherapy.
BACKGROUND Lung cancer is the No. 1 cancer killer of both men and women in the United States. Radiotherapy is frequently employed as part of the treatment. However, radiation must traverse surrounding regions of normal lung, potentially inducing pulmonary toxicity. Because these patients frequently have underlying lung disease, a radiation-induced decrement in lung function could be highly morb...
متن کاملFunctional magnetic resonance imaging of the lung.
Beyond being a substitute for X-ray, computed tomography, and scintigraphy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) inherently combines morphologic and functional information more than any other technology. Lung perfusion: The most established method is first-pass contrast-enhanced imaging with bolus injection of gadolinium chelates and time-resolved gradient-echo (GRE) sequences covering the whole lu...
متن کاملFunctional lung imaging using hyperpolarized gas MRI.
The noninvasive assessment of lung function using imaging is increasingly of interest for the study of lung diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. Hyperpolarized gas MRI (HP MRI) has demonstrated the ability to detect changes in ventilation, perfusion, and lung microstructure that appear to be associated with both normal lung development and disease progres...
متن کاملUltrashort Echo Time (UTE) MR Lung Imaging with Respiratory Motion Compensation
Introduction: Conventional gradient-echo based magnetic resonance imaging of lung parenchyma suffers from poor signal-to-noise ratios due to low proton density and short T2* caused by susceptibility gradients between airways and tissue. In addition, respiratory and cardiac motions seriously degrade the achievable image quality. Ultra-short echo time (UTE) MRI has recently gained renewed attenti...
