A summary of the R2 values from the regression analysis, the mean differences and upper and lower 95% limits of agreement from the Bland-Altman plots, and the p-values from the hypothesis tests of equal mean for the EF, ESV, and EDVs calculated using the two different imaging methods. The top third of the table shows values derived from all subjects, while the central and bottom thirds show the values when using only subsets of the subjects with the same number of calibration frames for the radial GRAPPA reconstructions.
