Figure 1

Matched representative SAX slices from in vivo pre contrast T2W (BB-T2-STIR) (A) and pre-contrast T2 map (B). A time series of post contrast EGE (PSIR) are shown in (C-E) with time post infusion shown. Significant T2 reduction with heterogeneity is presented from the T2 map (magnified in Figure 2). MVO is clearly detected from EGE as the hypointensity surrounded by enhanced signal though the temporal variation of the area of MVO represents the sensitivity to contrast agent kinetics.
