This book provides a comprehensive overview of how to use MRI for
the imaging of lung disease. Special emphasis is placed on routine
applications and the clinical impact of MRI in each setting. In
addition, current technological developments are reviewed and
information presented on dedicated applications of MRI in
preclinical and translational research, clinical trials, and
specialized institutions. During the past two decades, significant
advances in the technology have enabled MRI to enter and mature in
the clinical arena of chest imaging. Standard protocols are now
readily available on MR scanners, and MRI is recommended as the
first- or second-line imaging modality for a variety of lung
diseases, not limited to cystic fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension,
and lung cancer. The benefits and added value of MRI originate from
its ability to both visualize lung structure and provide
information on different aspects of lung function, such as
perfusion, respiratory motion, ventilation, and gas exchange. On
this basis, novel quantitative surrogates for lung function and
therapy control (imaging biomarkers) are generated. The second
edition of MRI of the Lung has been fully updated to take account
of recent advances. It is written by an internationally balanced
team of renowned authors representing all major groups in the
field.
