From: Myocardial native T1 relaxation times are highly dependent on the blood T1 values
Tissue | Level of perfusion | T1 relation between tissues and blood | Person r pre-contrast | Person r post-contrast | p |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Myocardium | High | High | 0.647 | 0.881 | <0.01 for both |
Skeletal muscle | Intermediate | Intermediate | 0.369 | 0.369 | <0.05 for both |
Fat | Low | Low | -0.037 | 0.231 | >0.05 for both |
