Overview
Functional MRIs help to measure the actual lung ventilation and localize the precise pathological area involved during an acute asthmatic attack. The use of special paramagnetic gases enhance the low signal-to-noise ratio of conventional spin-echo and gradient-echo techniques a several fold times, which in turn, abolishes the disadvantages induced by the air-alveolar interfaces.[1]
