Example of native T1 mapping in a 38-year-old deceased-donor kidney transplant patient. The T1 value changing from 1389 ms (a) to 1252 ms (b) showing a decrease 6 months after transplantation (visual pattern with increased blue staining, patient id = 3).The thin line denotes the manually contoured region of interest (ROI) in the midventricular septum. The box shows the measures of T1 value by automatic computer average of the pixels. The color map scale represents the values in milliseconds (blue corresponds to smaller values and yellow to higher values). Data acquired with the modified look-locker inversion recovery (MOLLI) T1 mapping sequence at field strength of 3 T
