Quantification techniques to minimize the effects of native T(1) variation and B(1) inhomogeneity in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI of the breast at 3 T.

The variation of the native T(1) (T(10) ) of different tissues and B(1) transmission-field inhomogeneity at 3 T are major contributors of errors in the quantification of breast dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI. To address these issues, we have introduced new enhancement indices derived from saturation-...
