Abstract

PURPOSE: Alterations in myocardial and blood pool relaxation times may be due to physiologic change or pathological factors. Blood T2 relaxation time is sensitive to oxygenation changes. We aimed to assess the association between indices of cardiopulmonary circulation and cardiac parametric mapping. METHODS: 213 adults recovered from COVID-19 infection (96 men, mean age 55 ± 14 years) were scanne…
