Measurement of arterial plasma oxygenation in dynamic oxygen-enhanced MRI.
Inhaled oxygen can be used as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging, due to the T(1) shortening effect of the oxygen dissolved in blood and tissue water. In this study, blood T(1) was measured dynamically in 14 volunteers (seven smokers, seven never-smokers) as the inhaled gas was switched from medical air to 100% oxygen and back to medical air. These T(1) values were converted to cha...
متن کاملDynamic oxygen-enhanced MRI in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension
Introduction: Oxygen-enhanced MRI (O2-MRI) of the lung is based on the T1-shortening effect of oxygen (O2) inhalation and provides combined information about pulmonary ventilation, perfusion, and diffusion [1–9]. Dynamic O2-MRI acquires (in each pixel) the signal time course influenced by the alternating administration of room air and O2. By fitting a model function (pixelwise) to the acquired ...
متن کاملDynamic Oxygen-Enhanced MRI of Cerebrospinal Fluid
Oxygen causes an increase in the longitudinal relaxation rate of tissues through its T1-shortening effect owing to its paramagnetic properties. Due to such effects, MRI has been used to study oxygen-related signal intensity changes in various body parts including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space. Oxygen enhancement of CSF has been mainly studied using MRI sequences with relatively longer time re...
متن کاملMeasurement of renal tissue oxygenation with blood oxygen level-dependent MRI and oxygen transit modeling.
Blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) MRI data of kidney, while indicative of tissue oxygenation level (Po2), is in fact influenced by multiple confounding factors, such as R2, perfusion, oxygen permeability, and hematocrit. We aim to explore the feasibility of extracting tissue Po2 from renal BOLD data. A method of two steps was proposed: first, a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate blood oxygen ...
متن کاملToward local arterial input functions in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI.
PURPOSE To present a method for estimating the local arterial input function (AIF) within a dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI scan, based on the alternating minimization with model (AMM) method. MATERIALS AND METHODS This method clusters a subset of data into representative curves, which are then input to the AMM algorithm to return a parameterized AIF and pharmacokinetic parameters. Computer sim...
