From: True T1 mapping with SMART1Map (saturation method using adaptive recovery times for cardiac T1 mapping): a comparison with MOLLI

Figure 2

T1 accuracy for SMART1Map, uncorrected MOLLI, and corrected MOLLI as a function of readout window duration Tacq (left) and heart rate (right). In both cases, although corrected MOLLI (red) shows improvement over uncorrected MOLLI (blue), it still tends toward underestimation, especially at low T1s. In general, T1 underestimation with MOLLI increases with Tacq, heart rate, and T1. In contrast, SMART1Map (green) exhibits consistent accuracy across the range of T1s and demonstrates no sensitivity to Tacq or heart rate.
