Student’s t-test comparing T1 or T2 values of patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor associated myocarditis with site- and magnet-specific normal mean values and standard deviation.
Student’s t-test comparing T1 or T2 values of patients with and without major adverse cardiovascular events.
analysis could not be performed due only one patient in the MACE group.
