Contrast enhanced lung MRI in mice using ultra‐short echo time radial imaging and intratracheally administrated Gd‐DOTA‐based nanoparticles

To investigate the in vivo T1‐enhancement of the lung parenchyma in free‐breathing healthy mice following intratracheal administration of Gd‐DOTA‐based nanoparticles, to assess the enhancement kinetics of the instilled contrast medium and to identify its elimination pathways.
