Quantitative contrast‐enhanced perfusion measurements of the human lung using the prebolus approach

To investigate dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI (DCE‐MRI) for quantification of pulmonary blood flow (PBF) and blood volume (PBV) using the prebolus approach and to compare the results to the global lung perfusion (GLP).
