T1 mapping for myocardial extracellular volume measurement by CMR: bolus only versus primed infusion technique.

The aim of this study was to determine the accuracy of the contrast "bolus only" T1 mapping cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) technique for measuring myocardial extracellular volume fraction (ECV).Myocardial ECV can be measured with T1 mapping before and after contrast agent if the contrast...
