Lung ventilation volumetry with same‐breath acquisition of hyperpolarized gas and proton MRI

The purpose of this work was to assess the reproducibility of percentage of ventilated lung volume (PV) measured from hyperpolarized (HP) 3He and 1H anatomical images acquired in the same breath‐hold when compared with PV measured from 3He and 1H images from separate breath‐holds.
