ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To obtain whole lung morphometry measurements from 129 Xe in a single breath-hold with 3D multiple b-value 129 Xe diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) with an empirically optimized diffusion time and compressed sensing for scan acceleration.METHODS:
Prospective three-fold undersampled 3D multiple b-value hyperpolarized 129 Xe DW-MRI datasets were acquired, and the diffusion time (Δ) was iterated so as to provide diffusive length scale (LmD ) estimates from the stretched exponential model (SEM) that are comparable to those from 3 He. The empirically optimized 129 Xe diffusion time was then implemented with a four-fold undersampling scheme and was prospectively benchmarked against 3 He measurements in a cohort of five healthy volunteers, six ex-smokers, and two chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients using both SEM-derived LmD and cylinder model (CM)-derived mean chord length (Lm).RESULTS:
Good agreement between the mean 129 Xe and 3 He LmD (mean difference, 2.2%) and Lm (mean difference, 1.1%) values was obtained in all subjects at an empirically optimized 129 Xe Δ = 8.5 ms.CONCLUSION:
Compressed sensing has facilitated single-breath 3D multiple b-value 129 Xe DW-MRI acquisitions, and results at 129 Xe Δ = 8.5 ms indicate that 129 Xe provides a viable alternative to 3 He for whole lung morphometry mapping with either the SEM or CM.
