129Xe Xenon
Hyperpolarization of Xenon-129 is a revolutionary new diagnostic imaging tool for the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology.
Hyperpolarized Xenon-129 makes it possible capturing high-resolution, 3D images of the lung using a conventional MRI scanner.
Due to the varying solubility of Xenon in different environments, it is additionally possible to illuminate organ functions and tissue characteristics in a total way.
