Free‐Breathing Magnetization Transfer Imaging of the Lung at 0. <scp>55 T</scp> Using <scp>bSTAR</scp>
At 0.55 T, MT-sensitized bSTAR offers in vivo high-resolution free-breathing MTR imaging of the entire lung in clinically acceptable scan times and shows high reproducibility. Initial results suggest that MTR imaging at 0.55 T may potentially serve as a noninvasive biomarker for investigating and differentiating pulmonary diseases.
