Our Mission

• Provide imaging methods that can be used longitudinally, from birth through adulthood 
• Lead the field of pediatric pulmonary imaging through advanced and quantitative techniques, including hyperpolarized ³He and ¹²⁹Xe MRI, UTE MRI, and multi-volume CT
• Broaden understanding of regional structure and function in health and disease
• Perform multi-disciplinary, translational research in humans and animal models of disease
