Bibliography: | Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a nonradioactive and noninvasive medical imaging technique, and it has been widely applied in the clinical diagnosis. However, using conventional proton MRI to obtain lung images is difficult, because the proton density in the lungs is about three orders of magnitude lower than that in other organs/tissues due to air cavities in the lungs. Hyperpolarized noble gases can be used as contrast agents for lung MRI. Spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) is a technique that can be used to enhance the nuclear spin polarizations of noble gases more than 10 000 folds, which makes noble gas lung MRI feasible. In this paper, the recent developments of hyperpolarized gases lung MRI were reviewed. Topics covered include comparison of different hyperpolarized noble gases used for lung MRI, unconventional methods for measuring quantitative parameters in hyperpolarized gas MRI, and the most updated applications of hyperpolarized gas MRI in assessing pulmonary structure and function.
