Excerpt
T1 Mapping has emerged as a new marker to quantify myocardial extracellular volume (ECV), which is typically increased in the setting of diffuse fibrosis or infiltrative heart diseases. However the reproducibility of the technique is largely unknown. We sought to identify the interobserver, intraobserver variability of different T1 mapping techniques as well as validation of one technique against the standard technique for ECV quantification. …
