## Abstract ## Purpose To determine normative R2\* values in the liver and heart at 3T, and establish the relationship between R2\* at 3T and 1.5T over a range of tissue iron concentrations. ## Materials and Methods A total of 20 healthy control subjects and 14 transfusion‐dependent patients wer

## Background Three-dimensional time-resolved (4D) phase-contrast (PC) CMR can visualize and quantify cardiovascular flow but is hampered by long acquisition times. Acceleration with SENSE or k-t BLAST are two possibilities but results on validation are lacking, especially at 3 T. The aim of this s
The objective of this study was to implement a clinically relevant multi-slice multi-echo imaging sequence in order to quantify multicomponent T2 relaxation times for normal volunteers at both 1.5 and 3 T. Multi-echo data were fitted using a nonnegative least square algorithm. Twelve echo data with
## 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
