<h4>Purpose</h4>To determine the in vitro accuracy, test-retest repeatability, and interplatform reproducibility of T<sub>1</sub> quantification protocols used for dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI at 1.5 and 3 T.<h4>Methods</h4>A T<sub>1</sub> phantom with 14 samples was imaged at eight centers with a common inversion-recovery spin-echo (IR-SE) protocol and a variable flip angle (VFA) protocol using seven flip angles, as well as site-specific protocols (VFA with different flip angles, variable repe ...[more]
