- Abstract
The quantitative accuracy of contrast agent concentration measurements for use in Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI is investigated in phantom experiments. Two commonly accepted techniques are compared. Both techniques require the direct input of T1 measurements. Three candidates for clinical T1 mapping with different overall accuracies were used to yield a total of six possible concentration evaluation methods. Measurements of concentration using these methods were repeated several times such that the overall accuracy and reproducibility may be evaluated.
