Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most used neuroimaging techniques. Unfortunately, signal intensities in conventional MRI images are expressed in relative units that are dependent on hardware and software. This does not hinder visual inspection of anatomy, but severely complicates quantitative comparisons of the signal intensity within a scan, between successive scans, and between subjects. In contrast, MR relaxometry is an MRI ...
