From: Correcting T2* effects in the myocardial perfusion arterial input function avoids overestimation of myocardial blood flow

Figure 2

Comparison of MBF estimates with and without T2* correction on AIF. Pixel-wise MBF maps were computed using a two compartment model deconvolution. The mean MBF values for all FLASH rest/stress cases are 0.96 ± 0.16/2.80 ± 0.39 with T2* correction and 1.07 ± 0.22/3.04 ± 0.37 without T2* correction. Significant differences were found for the FLASH studies (t-test, p-value, rest/stress: 0.053/0.030).
