We used first-pass contrast-enhanced MRI to quantatively measure the myocardial Ktrans, a parameter indicating myocardial perfusion and vascular permeability, in mice with or without vasodilation. We measured a significant increase in myocardial Ktrans with vasodilation. We believe this may be the f
## Abstract ## Purpose: To develop, and validate in vivo, a robust quantitative firstβpass perfusion cardiovascular MR (CMR) method with accurate arterial input function (AIF) and myocardial wall enhancement. ## Materials and Methods: A saturationβrecovery (SR) pulse sequence was modified to seq
