Actual (reported)Hyperpolarized Helium-3 MR Images
We have applied hyperpolarized 3He MR imaging to a range of subject with various disorders. We have developed our scanning techniques so as to acquire optimized images for each disorder.
15 second breath-hold
This population is made up of only confirmed asthmatics. Participants will inhale Hyperpolarized Helium-3: Participants will be required to breath in individual 1 liter bags of gas while in an MRI to produce lung images. These bags of gas are each made up of 333mL of Helium-3 gas and 667mL of Nitrogen. Three bags will be administered to acquire three different scans.

The Effects of Broccoli Sprout Extract on Obstructive Lung Disease
This population is made up of only confirmed COPD patients. Diagnosis must be confirmed through their doctor prior to enrollment. Participants will inhale Hyperpolarized Helium-3: Participants will be required to breath in individual 1 liter bags of gas while in an MRI to produce lung images. These bags of gas are each made up of 333mL of Helium-3 gas and 667mL of Nitrogen. Three bags will be administered to acquire three different scans.
