## Abstract Dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI using gadolinium or manganese provides unique characterization of myocardium and its pathology. In this study, an electrocardiography (ECG) triggered saturation recovery Look‐Locker method was developed and validated for fast cardiac __T__~1~ mapping in sma

T1 relaxation-time mapping allows direct myocardial signal quantification and therefore enables true quantitative characterisation of myocardial tissue heterogeneity. Differences between healthy myocardium and scarred tissues can be reliably distinguished from the R1 values derived from pre-contrast
## Abstract ## Purpose To optimize and validate a fully‐integrated version of modified Look‐Locker inversion‐recovery (MOLLI) for clinical single‐breathhold cardiac T1 mapping. ## Materials and Methods A MOLLI variant allowing direct access to all pulse sequence parameters was implemented on a 1
