Deep‐Learning‐Based Image Reconstruction to Improve End‐Diastolic and Systolic Cardiac T1 Mapping

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop an image reconstruction method that enables increased spatial resolution cardiac T1 mapping in both the end‐diastolic and systolic phase, that shows high T1 agreement with the clinical standard. The resolution gain is achieved by increasing the acceleration rate of MOLLI single‐shot images to R = 4, while maintaining a ...
