Actual (reported)The purpose of this study is to develop rapid MRI techniques for imaging the lung with hyperpolarized helium-3 gas as an inhaled contrast agent. These techniques will be piloted in adults and older children before testing them in younger children and infants. The purpose is to enable imaging of non-sedated infants by imaging so fast as to freeze motion.

Actual (reported)Ventilation Defects as Seen on Hyperpolarized Helium-3 MRI
On hyperpolarized helium-3 MRI, well ventilated areas of the lung appear bright and poorly ventilated areas appear dark. The poorly ventilated areas are called ventilation defects. Human readers looked at the hyperpolarized helium-3 MR images and determined whether the lungs had: No Defects, Small Defects, or Large Defects.
Day 1
Using hyperpolarized helium-3 as an inhaled contrast agent for MRI, we will assess the lung ventilation.
hyperpolarized helium-3 is an inhaled gaseous contrast agent for MRI and permits the acquisition of high quality imagined of lung ventilation.
