Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging (MM) using optically polarized ³He is a new and very promising diagnostic method for studying structure and function of lungs. A novel low field MRI system based on permanent magnet and a home-built ³He polarizing unit is presented. The system is designed to perform experiments on small animals. First ¹H and ³He images of phantoms small biological objects and rat lungs in vivo are shown.
