This document aims to provide consensus recommendations for measuring myocardial T1 and extracellular volume in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR).
Expert consensus was used to outline best practices for T1 mapping and ECV quantification.
Recommendations cover scan type, acquisition protocols, quality control, and data analysis techniques.
Controversies and challenges in the current application of these measures were also discussed.
T1 mapping and ECV are shown to hold promise for tracking myocardial disease indicators.
Both measurements are deemed robust for clinical use, although significant challenges remain for multi-centre applications.
More research is emphasized to enhance their utility in larger-scale clinical decision making.
