The goals of this work were to test a multiparametric MRI protocol to measure perfusion, diffusion and T1 and to assess inter-session reproducibility in a group of transplanted patients with stable renal function.
18 patients were imaged in 2 exams employing pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling technique, intravoxel incoherent motion technique and T1 mapping sequence. Reproducibility was assessed using Bland-Altman analysis, within-subject coefficient of variation (CVws) and intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC).
Results of the 3 techniques were promising showing a CVws <20% in most of the cases (especially for T1 and D (<6%)) and high ICC coefficients for PCASL and T1.
