Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using inert perfluorinated gases mixed with oxygen for regional assessment of pulmonary function. The proposed study seeks to determine regional qualitative and quantitative lung function information in the context of the clinical trajectory of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) defined by the cross sectional cohort component. In the case of these perfluorinated (PFx)/oxygen mixtures, the availability of multi-liter quantities allows for wash-in/wash-out image acquisition and analysis allowing direct measures of gas trapping in a manner not easily achieved with any existing modality.

Primary Outcome

Determine quantitative measures of lung ventilation performance in terms of direct measures of gas trapping measured during washout of the perfluorinated gas mixture. Measurement of 'gas trapping' was accomplished using fractional lung volume fast and slow filling compartments. Fractional lung volumes are derived from the MRI (lung volume with fast or slow filling/total MR volume elements in the lung field defined by the gas imaging). All data is normalized per subject to the total lung volume o
