Fig. 1E —63-year-old man with adenocarcinoma in upper lobe of left lung. Dynamic perfusion MR images show heterogeneous but well-enhanced pulmonary parenchyma at 5 and 13 seconds in portions of lungs not affected by lung cancer (arrows). Lung cancer also is enhanced after 13 seconds.

Fig. 2A —Correlation between each version of predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in first second of expiration (FEV1), expressed as percentage of predicted value, and actual postoperative FEV1. Graph shows postoperative FEV1 predicted from perfusion MRI correlates well (r =0.87, p < 0.0001) with actual postoperative FEV1.

Fig. 2B —Correlation between each version of predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in first second of expiration (FEV1), expressed as percentage of predicted value, and actual postoperative FEV1. Graph shows postoperative FEV1 predicted from quantitative assessment of CT scans correlates well (r =0.88, p < 0.0001) with actual postoperative FEV1.

Fig. 2C —Correlation between each version of predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in first second of expiration (FEV1), expressed as percentage of predicted value, and actual postoperative FEV1. Graph shows postoperative FEV1 predicted from qualitative assessment of CT scans correlates well (r = 0.83, p < 0.0001) with actual postoperative FEV1.

Fig. 3A —The limits of agreement between actual postoperative forced expiratory volume in first second of expiration (FEV1), expressed as percentage of predicted value, and each version of predicted postoperative FEV1. Graph shows the limits of agreement are 5.3% ± 11.8% for perfusion MRI.
