16:00 0293. Median-anchored Generalized Linear Binning vs Conventional Methods to Quantify 129Xe Lung Ventilation MRI
R. Hussain, J. Plummer, A. Bdaiwi, M. Willmering, L. Walkup, Z. Cleveland
Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, United States
Impact: Median-anchored generalized linear binning analysis of HP-129Xe ventilation images enabled improved detection of subtle ventilation impairments in people with cystic fibrosis. This method shows promise for broader applications across obstructive diseases, advancing early diagnosis and disease monitoring.
16:12 0294. Mapping the Chemical Shift of 129Xe in Red Blood Cells as a Biomarker for Pulmonary Hypertension
A. Costelle, S. Leewiwatwong, J. Mugler III, S. Rajagopal, D. Mummy, B. Driehuys
Duke University, Durham, United States
Impact: This work offers a proof-of-concept that mapping the 129Xe RBC chemical shift could be valuable in assessing PH. Compared to current gold standard diagnostic techniques, 129Xe CSI is less invasive and, with further optimization, may permit localization of vascular occlusion.
16:24 0295. A Comparison of the 1-Point Dixon, Multiple Echo IDEAL, and Chemical Shift Imaging methods for Hyperpolarized 129Xe Spectroscopic Imaging
R. Meyer, M. McIntosh, K. Staab, J. Percy, O. Aboderin, S. Khodaei, A. Kizhakke Puliyakote, R. Schulte, C. Wharff, S. Fain, A. Hahn
University of Iowa, Iowa City, United States
Impact: These results on a small cohort of participants provide preliminary support for equivalence between 1-Point Dixon, ME IDEAL, and CSI methods in the same healthy participant. This work shows promise for the standardization of hyperpolarized 129Xe gas-exchange imaging measures.
16:36 0296. Evaluating the acute response to oxygen using hyperpolarized 129-xenon dissolved-phase MRSI interleaved with global MRS in a porcine model
M. Vaeggemose, M. Andersen, M. Kristensen, E. Hansen, C. Laustsen, R. Schulte
Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark
Impact:

The study implements and validates a dissolved-phase MRSI with interleaved MRS to image gas transfer and RBC oscillations during vasoactive interventions. Alveolar-capillary modulation effects on blood oscillations are crucial for the methods application in detection of pulmonary arterial hypertension detection.

16:48 0297. Assessment of differential activation of TCA cycle activity and PDH flux by DCA in skeletal muscle using hyperpolarized [2-13C,3-2H3]pyruvate
S-H Lin, M. Huynh, Z. Erfani, S. N. G. Wathukara Dewage, B. Kucejova, T. Jue, Z. Kovacs, S. Burgess, J. M. Park
UT Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, United States
Impact: The dichloroacetate-induced PDH activation was detected with a smaller activation of glutamate, suggesting that the TCA cycle activity was not proportional to the PDH flux in the skeletal muscle. This highlights that ALCAR may play a significant role. 
17:00 0298. Measuring extracellular pH in 3D using an iterative least squares frequency decomposition and hyperpolarized 13C-labelled Z-OMPD
J. Gaubatz, A. Wendlinger, N. Setzer, F. Gaksch, M. Grashei, F. Schilling
TUM School of Medicine and Health, Department of Nuclear Medicine, TUM University Hospital, Munich, Germany
Impact: The proposed iterative least squares frequency decomposition method enables fast 3D pH measurement using hyperpolarized [1,5-13C2]Z-OMPD, providing an alternative to the previously used 2D spectroscopic sequences. The acquisition of 3D pH maps enhances the ability to investigate tumor acidification.
17:12 0299. Hyperpolarized [13C]Bicarbonate Selective CINE: Correlation of Myocardial Metabolism with Rate-Pressure Product During Cardiac Stress
M. Redda, N. Bøgh, E. Hansen, U. Kjærgaard, R. Schulte, C. Laustsen
Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark
Impact: BicarbCINE provides high temporal resolution and specificity in cardiac metabolic imaging, significantly advancing the assessment of myocardial metabolism. This technique could enhance diagnostic accuracy for cardiac diseases, improve patient management, and guide treatment decisions, especially in stress-induced cardiac dysfunction.
17:24 0300. Dynamic Hyperpolarized MRI for Imaging ¹³C-Ketoisocaproate Metabolism in an Alzheimer’s Disease model
I. Skre, D. Christensen, A. Fredriksen, M. Karlsson, R. Olin, M. Lerche
Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Kongens Lyngby, Denmark
Impact: We introduce a dynamic method to measure BCAT activity in vivo, with initial results indicating increased activity in a preclinical Alzheimer's model. By enabling real-time tracking of KIC metabolism, we provide a tool for investigating metabolic alterations in neurological disorders.
17:36 0301. Visualization of long-lasting metabolic change in the brain of pseud-infectious model mice using hyperpolarized 13C MRI with PHIP-SAH.
M. Yamasaki, H. Tomiyama, H. Hirata, S. Matsumoto
Information Science and Technology, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan
Impact: Brain metabolic alterations measured by hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate MRI may reflect neurological dysfunction associated with serotonin abnormalities, suggesting its potential as a diagnostic tool for identifying brain impairments linked to RNA virus infections and related neuropsychiatric conditions.
17:48 0302. Imaging Brain Perfusion Using Time-encoded PCASL and Hyperpolarized [13C,15N2]Urea MRI in Healthy Volunteers
P. Joshi, D. Shin, R. Bok, D. Vigneron, J. Gordon, Y. Kim
University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, United States
Impact: The combined hyperpolarized [13C,15N2]urea and ASL MRI can provide a multifaceted assessment of brain arterial flow, venous drainage, and tissue perfusion that may enhance diagnostic capabilities and evaluation in clinical settings.
