behaves the same as oxygen, and you can see here this is the xenon getting through normally into the bloodstream from their lungs and the blacker areas are where the xenon gas or oxygen would struggle to get through. and this is what it should look like? and this scan over here is a normal volunteer and it should be as clear as that. it s early days for this study and there are still lots of questions including exactly what is causing these abnormal lung scans. in the meantime there aren t many of these specially adapted mri scanners across the country. if this research proves they re worthwhile, it would take some serious investment and several months to scale them up across the nhs. the team is recruiting more volunteers through long covid clinics but says help is out there right now. at the moment it is frustrating having people come into the clinic and not be able to explain to them exactly why it is that they are breathless, and i really do hope this research will shed more ligh
