Journal ArticleDOI

MRI of the lungs using hyperpolarized noble gases.

TL;DR: The physics underlying the optical pumping process, imaging strategies coping with the nonequilibrium polarization, and effects of the alveolar microstructure on relaxation and diffusion of the noble gases are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tbx5-dependent rheostatic control of cardiac gene expression and morphogenesis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the T-box transcription factor gene TBX5 was found to cause Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS), an inherited human disease characterized by upper limb malformations and congenital heart defects (CHDs) of variable severity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of emphysema in rat lungs by using magnetic resonance measurements of 3He diffusion.

TL;DR: The results indicate that measurement of the hyperpolarized (3)He ADC can be a valuable research tool and has potential application in the clinical setting, and the data show that the ADC is significantly larger in elastase-treated rats, indicating alveolar expansion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive transthoracic cardiac imaging in mice using ultrasound biomicroscopy with anatomical confirmation by magnetic resonance imaging

TL;DR: The methodologies and baseline measurements of inbred mice provide a useful guide for investigators applying the high-frequency ultrasound imaging to mouse cardiac phenotyping.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroanatomical differences between mouse strains as shown by high-resolution 3D MRI.

TL;DR: 3D neuroanatomy of three strains of mice (129S1/SvImJ, C57/Bl6, and CD1) is significantly different from one another, and significant local deviations in volume and displacement between the two inbred strains are assessed.
