All patients had a cardiac T2* MRI, with the imaging carried out using a 1.5 Tesla MRI scanner (Philips Achieva, the Netherlands) with a sense cardiac phase array of a five-element coil, or SENSE XL Torso 16-element coil, as was used in previous studies.[29 (link)] Cardiac T2* was measured from a single short-axis view at the mid-left ventricle with 10 echo times (1.70–26.10 ms with an increment of 2.70 ms). The cardiac T2* protocol included a double inversion recovery black blood gradient echo. A multiecho sequence was applied with a flip angle of 25°, matrix 164 × 154, field of view 36 cm, TR 28 ms, slice thickness 10 mm, and number of signal averages = 1. Data analysis was performed on the workstation with the validated in-house software developed on the MATLAB R2014b (Mathworks, Natick, MA, USA).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
