Effect of different acceleration techniques on T2 estimates at 1.5 T. T2 exhibited an inverse dependence on the blood concentration with all acceleration techniques. The three accelerated T2 mapping methods showed good agreement with the reference scan (echo spacing 30 ms), except from the 5% blood concentration measurement using the EPI acceleration technique. EPI, echo-planar imaging; TSE, turbo spin-echo; TSE+SENSE, turbo spin-echo with sensitivity encoding
