Example T1-maps acquired prior to and 25 min after GBCA injection with all three T1-mapping sequences in short axis mid-ventricular slices of two healthy subjects. Visually high T1-map quality is apparent, with no artifacts and homogenous T1-times throughout the myocardium with all three methods. Sharp delineation of the myocardium against the blood-pools is observed for both native T1 and T1 post-contrast. MOLLI T1-maps show systematically lower T1-times compared with the saturation-recovery sequences
