The STAR-HASTE sequence has been shown to be useful for perfusion imaging in areas that are plagued by magnetic susceptibility artifacts. Pulmonary perfusion imaging with this technique was attempted in this study. Quantitative analysis was also conducted, using an appropriate kinetic model in one subject. In six healthy subjects, gradual enhancement was observed in pulmonary artery to distal lung parenchyma when inflow time was increased. Our initial results suggest that noninvasive evaluation of pulmonary perfusion by magnetic resonance imaging without administration of an exogenous agent is possible.
