Fig. 6.

Boxplots showing septal T1 and T2 mean (A) and standard deviation (B) obtained in 10 healthy subjects using the proposed free-running cMRF and the conventional methods. In each box plot, the horizontal line depicts the median, the top and bottom of the box represent the upper and lower quartiles, whereas the whiskers indicate the minimum and maximum values excluding outliers. Additional outliers are indicated by (+). Statistically significant differences (paired t-test) are indicated with * (p < .025 for T₁ and p < .05 for T₂ comparisons).
