Free-breathing slice-interleaved myocardial T₂mapping with slice-selective T₂magnetization preparation

Abstract

The proposed free-breathing slice-interleaved T2 mapping sequence allows T2 measurements of five left ventricular slices in 20 heartbeats with similar reproducibility and precision as the single-slice T2 mapping sequence but with a four-fold reduction in acquisition time.
