Summary
The goal of this research is to optimize the MRI system to obtain ideal lung images using
Hyperpolarized (HP) Noble and Inert Fluorinated Gases as contrast agents. Lung coils tuned to
the frequencies of these gases will be used. This study will take place at TBRHSC in the
Cardiorespiratory Department and in the Research MRI facility.
