Myocardial T1-mapping at 3T using saturation-recovery: reference values, precision and comparison with MOLLI
BACKGROUND Myocardial T1-mapping recently emerged as a promising quantitative method for non-invasive tissue characterization in numerous cardiomyopathies. Commonly performed with an inversion-recovery (IR) magnetization preparation at 1.5T, the application at 3T has gained due to increased quantification precision. Alternatively, saturation-recovery (SR) T1-mapping has recently been introduced...
متن کاملModified look-locker inversion recovery T1 mapping indices: assessment of accuracy and reproducibility between magnetic resonance scanners
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) T1 mapping indices, such as T1 time and partition coefficient (λ), have shown potential to assess diffuse myocardial fibrosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate how scanner and field strength variation affect the accuracy and precision/reproducibility of T1 mapping indices. METHODS CMR studies were performed on two 1.5T and three 3...
متن کاملReference values for healthy human myocardium using a T1 mapping methodology: results from the International T1 Multicenter cardiovascular magnetic resonance study
BACKGROUND T1 mapping is a robust and highly reproducible application to quantify myocardial relaxation of longitudinal magnetisation. Available T1 mapping methods are presently site and vendor specific, with variable accuracy and precision of T1 values between the systems and sequences. We assessed the transferability of a T1 mapping method and determined the reference values of healthy human ...
متن کاملShortened modified look-locker inversion recovery for myocardial T1 mapping in healthy volunteers: determination of reference T1 relaxation times at 3 Tesla MR according to different contrast injection methods
Background Reference preand post-contrast T1 values of myocardium have been reported at 1.5T but those values at 3T have not been fully established. Additionally, the physical properties of gadolinium contrast agents significantly affect the myocardial voxel T1 value. There have been two different contrast injection methods in the literatures. The aim of our study was to establish preand post-c...
متن کاملT1 at 1.5T and 3T compared with conventional T2* at 1.5T for cardiac siderosis
BACKGROUND Myocardial black blood (BB) T2* relaxometry at 1.5T provides robust, reproducible and calibrated non-invasive assessment of cardiac iron burden. In vitro data has shown that like T2*, novel native Modified Look-Locker Inversion recovery (MOLLI) T1 shortens with increasing tissue iron. The relative merits of T1 and T2* are largely unexplored. We compared the established 1.5T BB T2* te...
