An input function characterizing the amount of inspired
oxygen is required to allow standardized
parameterization of changes in T1 contrast due to oxygen
inhalation when performing oxygen-enhanced MRI. In this
work, we propose a functional form of an oxygen input
function (OIF) derived from inspired oxygen measured in
110 dataset using two standard disposable
non-rebreathing clinical masks. Results show that the
OIF wash-in and wash-out can be adequately described by
bi-exponential functions and a population-based OIF may
provide an adequate description of the true OIF at the
individual level.
