OEF at rest are values of coronary sinus in Table 2

MBF and MBV were calculated from the first-pass perfusion imaging data sets.

*T₂sen or T₂ sensitivity = percentage of T₂ change/100% increase in MBF

Aden = Adenosine vasodilation

†P < 0.01 for comparison between rest and adenosine.

^ξ P < 0.05 for comparison between rest and adenosine.

††P < 0.05 for comparison between T₂prep and TSE methods.
