## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the signalβtoβnoise ratio (SNR), precision, and accuracy of phaseβcontrast flow measurements at 3 T with the help of an in vitro model and to compare the results with data from two 1.5βT scanners. ## Materials and Methods Using an identical setup of a laminar f

## Abstract To identify the optimum sequence at gadoxetic acid enhanced hepatic dynamic magnetic resonance imaging in the arterial phase, we studied phantoms that contained gadoxetic acid or gadopentetate dimeglumine diluted in human blood. We obtained magnetic resonance images at 3.0 T and 1.5 T w
The Fig. 3 was incorrect. It was same as the FIG. 2. The error had been made during the last stages of submitting publication-quality figures. The reviewers had seen the correct figure. The correct figure and legend is reprinted below. FIG. 3. Plots of the contrast ratio of the Gd concentrations at
Conventional T 2 -and T\* 2 -weighted image contrasts are produced by waiting a TE period for the transverse magnetic resonance (MR) signals to decay to differentiate tissue types with distinct relaxation rates. Significant image signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is compromised by this contrast-producing
