Book 20091st editionf how to use MRI for imaging of lung disease. Special emphasis is placed on benign diseases requiring regular monitoring, given that it is patients with these diseases who derive the greatest benefit from the avoidance of ionizing radiation. .

General Requirements of MRI of the Lung and Suggested Standard Protocol as dynamic studies of respiratory mechanics and first pass perfusion imaging. However, challenges such as motion artifacts and low signal have delayed the introduction into clinical routine. This chapter discusses the strategies to overcome these obstacles and suggests a comprehensive protocol for

MR Angiography of the Pulmonary Vasculaturearallel imaging have made pulmonary ce-MRA ready for clinical use as a radiation free alternative to pulmonary CT angiography. An interesting advantage over CT is the possibility to acquire timeresolved MRA data which can be used for an additional functional assessment of pulmonary blood flow. Espec

It is altered in various diseases of the lung such as pulmonary hypertension or cystic fibrosis, etc. Therefore, perfusion is an important functional parameter in the diagnosis of pulmonary diseases and quantitative values are urgently required to study physiology and pathophysiology of var

Respiratory Mechanics and Pulmonary Motionuantitative analysis confirmed that the diaphragm essentially has a piston-like function, but also showed that respiratory motion has a complex distribution over the diaphragm and the thoracic wall, and is further changed with body position. MRI-derived volumetry is well correlated to spirometric me

Pulmonary Hypertension and Thromboembolic Diseaseer describes the basic mechanisms that lead to PH and the possibilities of MRI in diagnosing different aspects. A MR imaging protocol is provided making MRI a one-stop shop for classification of the underlying disease and assessment of hemodynamics.

Vascular Anomalies and Diseasesnormalities of the pulmonary arterial system and partial or total abnormal pulmonary venous return. Diseases of the pulmonary vessels, other than thromboembolic diseases (refer to Chap. 6), are either primary tumors of the vessels or external compression. The following sections are organized accordi
