Total Liquid Ventilation (TLV) has been investigated as
a medium for gas transport and diffusion. It has been
used with perfluocarbons (PFCs), with perfluorooctane
(PFOC) in particular, which showed good tolerance in
vivo. To follow PFOC administration and clearance in rat
lungs, we used dual-nuclei MRI and MRS with a home-build
double-resonant coil. PFOC kinetics and clearance times
are presented in this work.
