Abstract

An inversion recovery true fast imaging with steady precession (FISP) pulse sequence was developed to carry out fast imaging of the lungs at 0.2 T. Using this sequence, oxygen-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) lung imaging was performed on healthy volunteers. The lungs showed signal enhancement (11.7% +/- 3.8%) when breathing 100% oxygen. Using inversion recovery, true FISP at low field may prove promising for MR lung imaging.
