    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Pulmonary Medicine
    • Nuclear Medicine

    Background:

    • Commercially available disposable apparatus for radioxenon ventilation imaging presented challenges.
    • Issues included poor initial gas bolus inhalation and awkward wash-out phase initiation.
    • Patients experienced pressure build-up during the wash-out phase.
