Magnetic resonance T1 rho mapping may detect myocardial injuries without the need for exogenous contrast agents. However, multiple and differently T1 rho weighted co-registered acquisitions are required, and the lack of robust motion correction limits its clinical translation. This study introduces a novel automated model-based non-rigid motion correction technique for myocardial T1 rho mapping that makes use of the known signal model to drive the motion correction process. The performance, efficiency and clinical feasibility of the developed framework was investigated prospectively in a cohort of 30 patients with a broad range of ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathies.
