Recently, a novel quantification method named synthetic MRI have attracted more and more attention in the field of clinical research, such as neural disorders and tumor since the first study in 2008. However, this quantitative assessment of diseases based on relaxation times requires regions of interest (ROI), the delineation of which can impact the accuracy of estimated values. To evaluate how the distinct methods of ROI delineation would impact the relaxation value estimation, in current study, 30 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) were acquired using synthetic MRI.
