High-resolution 3D proton MRI of hyperpolarized gas enabled by parahydrogen and Rh/TiO2 heterogeneous catalyst.

ABSTRACT: Several supported metal catalysts were synthesized, characterized, and tested in heterogeneous hydrogenation of propene with parahydrogen to maximize nuclear spin hyperpolarization of propane gas using parahydrogen induced polarization (PHIP). The Rh/TiO2 catalyst with a metal particle size of 1.6?nm was found to be the most active and effective in the pairwise hydrogen addition and robust, demonstrating reproducible results with multiple hydrogenation experiments and stability for ?1.5 years. 3D (1) H magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of 1?% hyperpolarized flowing gas with microscale spatial resolution (625×625×625??m(3) ) and large imaging matrix (128×128×32) was demonstrated by using a preclinical 4.7?T scanner and 17.4?s imaging scan time.

Several supported metal catalysts were synthesized, characterized, and tested in heterogeneous hydrogenation of propene with parahydrogen to maximize nuclear spin hyperpolarization of propane gas using parahydrogen induced polarization (PHIP). The Rh/TiO2 catalyst with a metal particle size of 1.6 nm was found to be the most active and effective in the pairwise hydrogen addition and robust, demonstrating reproducible results with multiple hydrogenation experiments and stability for ≥1.5 years. 3 ...[more]

Project description:BackgroundHyperpolarized gas MRI can quantify regional lung ventilation via biomarkers, including the ventilation defect percentage (VDP). VDP is computed from segmentations derived from spatially co-registered functional hyperpolarized gas and structural proton (1 H)-MRI. Although acquired at similar lung inflation levels, they are frequently misaligned, requiring a lung cavity estimation (LCE). Recently, single-channel, mono-modal deep learning (DL)-based methods have shown promise for pulmonary image segmentation problems. Multichannel, multimodal approaches may outperform single-channel alternatives.PurposeWe hypothesized that a DL-based dual-channel approach, leveraging both 1 H-MRI and Xenon-129-MRI (129 Xe-MRI), can generate LCEs more accurately than single-channel alternatives.Study typeRetrospective.PopulationA total of 480 corresponding 1 H-MRI and 129 Xe-MRI scans from 26 healthy participants (median age [range]: 11 [8-71]; 50% females) and 289 patients with pulmonary pathologies (median age [range]: 47 [6-83]; 51% females) were split into training (422 scans [88%]; 257 participants [82%]) and testing (58 scans [12%]; 58 participants [18%]) sets.Field strength/sequence1.5-T, three-dimensional (3D) spoiled gradient-recalled 1 H-MRI and 3D steady-state free-precession 129 Xe-MRI.AssessmentWe developed a multimodal DL approach, integrating 129 Xe-MRI and 1 H-MRI, in a dual-channel convolutional neural network. We compared this approach to single-channel alternatives using manually edited LCEs as a benchmark. We further assessed a fully automatic DL-based framework to calculate VDPs and compared it to manually generated VDPs.Statistical testsFriedman tests with post hoc Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons compared single-channel and dual-channel DL approaches using Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), average boundary Hausdorff distance (average HD), and relative error (XOR) metrics. Bland-Altman analysis and paired t-tests compared manual and DL-generated VDPs. A P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.ResultsThe dual-channel approach significantly outperformed single-channel approaches, achieving a median (range) DSC, average HD, and XOR of 0.967 (0.867-0.978), 1.68 mm (37.0-0.778), and 0.066 (0.246-0.045), respectively. DL-generated VDPs were statistically indistinguishable from manually generated VDPs (P = 0.710).Data conclusionOur dual-channel approach generated LCEs, which could be integrated with ventilated lung segmentations to produce biomarkers such as the VDP without manual intervention.Evidence level4.Technical efficacyStage 1.
