Dynamic contrast-enhanced QSM for perfusion imaging: a systematic comparison of Δ R 2*- and QSM-based contrast agent concentration time curves in blood and tissue

DiscussionInterestingly, arterial concentration time curves based on ΔR2* versus QSM data, for a standard DSC-MRI experiment, were generally very similar in shape, and the relaxivity obtained in voxels representing blood was similar to tissue relaxivity obtained in previous studies.
