Figure 6.

129Xe MR images of subjects with similar DLCO measurements. The diffusion impairment among these subjects, measured by the global metric DLCO, can be independently quantified and spatially resolved by 129Xe images of ventilated volume to estimate VA, barrier uptake to estimate membrane conductance, and RBC transfer to estimate capillary blood volume conductance.
