An Efficient T1 Contrast Agent for Labeling and Tracking Human Embryonic Stem Cells on MRI

Figure 8

Comparison of reduction in T1 relaxation times in vitro and in vivo. An in vivo T1 map overlaid over the cell injection site shows similar reductions in T1 relaxation times (in units of ms) compared to cell pellet imaging. The same colour scale is used for both in vitro and in vivo maps.
