The TAN-6 ms adiabatic pulse shape optimally balances reduced T1 contamination and repeatability, and the SE parameter α provides a robust, orientation-independent biomarker for ordered tissues.
The TAN-6 ms adiabatic pulse shape provides an optimal balance of reduced T1 contamination and repeatability for T1ρ relaxation imaging, with the SE parameter α serving as a potentially robust biomarker for highly ordered tissues.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Adiabatic pulse shape strongly influences T1 contamination, but none of the tested preparations eliminated MAE. TAN-6 ms offered the best balance of reduced T1 contamination and high repeatability. The near orientation-independence of the SE parameter α suggests that it may serve as a more robust biomarker for highly ordered tissues.
