Comparison of CNR values for LGE imaging obtained at the best time delays for different doses

0.1 mmol/kg (at 10 min) vs. 0.2 mmol/kg gadobutrol (at 20 min) 0.1 mmol/kg (at 10 min) vs. 0.2 mmol/kg gadobutrol (at 15 min)
p-value Mean difference (LOA) p-value Mean difference (LOA)
SNR LVC 0.075 <0.001
SNR MYO 0.405 0.600
SNR LGE 0.371 0.861
CNR LGE-LVC 0.750 3 (8.1, −2.1) 0.002 4.3 (9.7, −1.1)
CNR LGE-MYO 0.237 4.7 (14.3, −4.9) 0.877 4 (13.7, −5.7)

Significant values are in bold, CNR Contrast-to-noise ratio, LGE Late gadolinium enhancement, LOA Limits of agreement, LVC Left ventricular cavity, MYO Myocardium, SNR Signal-to-noise ratio
