Representative 129Xe ventilation MRI and associated linear-binning and adaptive K-means maps for a young asthmatic subject with low VDP as SNR is progressively degraded. Both methods appear to report a stable VDP as SNR decreases down to ~4. At that point, both methods start to report a substantially higher VDP than that derived from the un-degraded image.
