Open AccessT1 at 1.5T and 3T compared with conventional T2* at 1.5T for cardiac siderosis
Myocardial black blood (BB) T2* relaxometry at 1.5T provides robust, reproducible and calibrated non-invasive assessment of cardiac iron burden. In vitro data has shown that like T2*, novel native Modified Loo...
