Regional contrast agent quantification in a mouse model of myocardial infarction using 3D cardiac T<sub>1 </sub>mapping

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Quantitative relaxation time measurements by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) are of paramount importance in contrast-enhanced studies of experimental myocardial infarction. First, compared to qualitative measurements based on...
