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.
