[Abstract] Objective: The purpose of this study is to quantify the myocardial T1 mapping values in minipig modelling for chronic myocardial ischemia.Materials and Methods: The minipigs were implanted the protein constriction ring (Ameroid) at left anterior descending artery to induce ischemia. The minipigs were scanned twice in a 3.0 T MRI scanner at the short axial slices of the apex, the papillary muscle, at the time of the baseline of the normal heart and at the 4th week after the operation with the chronic myocardial ischemia. The independent-samples t test was employed to analyze the difference of the T1 mapping values of the heart muscles between the two conditions.Results: In this study, 12 minipigs completed CMRI scan before modeling, The unenhanced myocardial average T1 values was (1108.9±10.5) ms, the mean myocardial T1 values were (1050.2±16.7) ms and (1139.7±54.4) ms respectively at the apex and papillary muscle myocardium, the difference was statistically significant. There were 11 minipigs completed CMR scan after modeling, the apical myocardial average T1 values was (1210.6±94.2) ms, it was higher than baseline, the difference was statistically significant. The mean myocardial T1 value of the papillary muscle was (1236.0±114.3) ms at chronic ischemia minipigs, no significant difference with baseline. Furthermore, statistically significant differences existed in the anterior and anteroseptal of the papillary muscle.Conclusion: The T1 mapping technique is valuable as a new important index for the diagnosis of chronic ischemic myocardium.
