Background No data are available about normal ranges for native T1 in human myocardium
using General Electric (GE) scanners. Purpose To establish normal ranges for myocardial …

Objectives Our aims were to obtain myocardial regional and global T2 values as a reference
for normality for the first time using a GE scanner and to assess their association with …

Purpose To introduce blood normalization for myocardial T1 values at magnetic resonance
(MR) imaging and to evaluate regional differences between systolic and diastolic myocardial …

Background Myocardial native T1 and T2 mapping are promising techniques for quantitative
assessment of diffuse myocardial pathologies; however, due to conflicting data regarding …

Background and purpose Interpretation of T2 values remains difficult due to limited
comparability across hardware and software systems and the lack of validated measurement …

Background: Reliable reference intervals are crucial for clinical application of myocardial T1
and T2 mapping cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. This study evaluated the …

A prospective study approved by the local ethics committee was performed to establish the
normal range and reproducibility of myocardial T1 values as assessed with single-breath …

Background Myocardial T1 relaxation time (T1 time) and extracellular volume fraction (ECV)
are altered in the presence of myocardial fibrosis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate …

Abstract Background Myocardial T 1 and T 2 mapping using cardiovascular magnetic
resonance (CMR) are promising to improve tissue characterization and early disease …

Objective T1 mapping cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is emerging as a
promising imaging biomarker. However, there are conflicting reports on whether myocardial …
