a: First echo MESE image acquired by the single-breathhold T2 (=1/R2) mapping sequence. b: Relationship between the measured R2 values and MnCl2 concentrations. The 11 large phantom tubes contain varying MnCl2 concentrations from 0 to 1 mM with 0.l mM increment, as indicated by the legends. Measurement ROIs are also shown. Linear dependency was clearly seen with R = 0.999 (P < 0.0001).
