At 37 degrees C and 20 MHz, the T1 and T2 proton relaxation processes in intact rat liver tissue are multiexponential functions which in the majority of cases were decomposed into a major (alpha\* approximately 90%, T1\* = 374 ms, T2\* = 58 ms) and a minor (alpha\*\* approximately 10%, T1\*\* = 130
## Abstract ## Purpose To compare different MRI‐derived parameters, i.e., liver signal‐to‐noise ratio (LSNR), liver‐to‐muscle ratio (LMR) and liver transversal relaxation rate (R2), in terms of their correlation with the ex vivo determined iron content in an experimental model of liver iron overlo
## Abstract ## Purpose To compare 3.0T and 1.5T MR systems in terms of the effect of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) on tumor‐to‐liver contrast in T2\*‐weighted gradient‐echo MRI. ## Materials and Methods SPIO‐enhanced gradient‐echo MR images of the liver with four different TEs (3, 5.3, 6.5
