Excerpt
Myocardial T2 mapping has been recently developed that allows for direct measurement of local myocardial T2, overcoming some of the limitations of T2-weighted images. We aimed to obtain myocardial regional and global T2 values as a reference for normality, using a novel mapping technique both at 1.5T and at 3T. …
