Cernicanu, C. van de Steeg Henzen, Q. Tao, S. Weingärtner
TU Delft, Delft, Netherlands
Impact: Confounder-corrected preparation-based B1+

Confounder correction can help to further reduce bias, which
may be particularly important for assessing B1+ trends
across tissue boundaries with different T1rho times.

1822. Self-gated
respiratory-resolved 4D T1 mapping of the carotid vessel wall
with B1+ correction

Impact: End-expiratory T1 mapping
generated with a respiratory-resolved free-running framework
using inversion pulses and an interleaved double flip angle
technique reduces T1 overestimation
in the carotid vessel wall and offers improved intersubject
variability compared to single flip angle and MOLLI maps.

Impact: The presented work provides evidence that flow
quantification and T1 mapping is feasible with contactless
cardiac cycle detection. The proposed method allows cardiac
MRI without placement of ECG electrodes, thus increasing
accessibility of cardiac MR.
