Cardiac MRI is increasingly being used for cardiac allograft surveillance following transplantation, so it is important to investigate which recipient and donor characteristics influence several CMR parameters: global ventricular function, myocardial velocities, dyssynchrony, T2, native T1, and ECV. Notable associations with T2 included donor age, normalized recipient-donor age difference, and recipient weight. Peak diastolic longitudinal velocity was associated with donor age and cold ischemic time.
