Multiple breath washout of hyperpolarized (129)Xe and (3)He in human lungs with three‐dimensional balanced steady‐state free‐precession imaging

PURPOSE: To compare quantitative fractional ventilation measurements from multiple breath washout imaging (MBW‐I) using hyperpolarized (3)He with both spoiled gradient echo (SPGR) and balanced steady‐state free precession (bSSFP) three‐dimensional (3D) pulse sequences and to evaluate the feasibility...
