Myocardial T2* mapping at ultrahigh magnetic fields: in vivo myocardial tissue characteri-zation and assessment of cardiac physiology with magnetic resonance imaging

Mapping the effective transverse relaxation time T2* represents an emerging MRI tool for non-invasive myocardial tissue characterization and holds the promise to provide means for assessing myocardial (patho)physiology in vivo. This work takes advantage of the linear increase of susceptibility effec...
