Legend: The sampling rate at the top of each column denotes the native (40 Hz) or modified (200 or 500 Hz) implementation. Values listed are the percent difference in the parameter between the two analyses listed for comparison; no statistically significant differences were detected. RETROICOR includes both RB and PPG correction components.
