Signal decay rate (R2*) and its relative dispersion (RD) in the control (A and C) and aerosol-exposed animals (B and D). In both the control (no exposure) and aerosol-exposed groups, R2* and RD were significantly higher in the elastase-treated rats than in the healthy rats (P = 0.003 and P = 0.012, respectively, for control animals and P < 0.001 for both R2* and RD in aerosol-exposed animals). *Statistical significance between diseased and healthy rats for a given lobe. $Statistical significance between lobes within each disease category.
