Native T1 mapping of the myocardium was performed in 223 patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. Patients with higher right ventricular (RV) insertion point T1 were less likely to survive than patients with lower inter-ventricular insertion point T1, however when assessed in a multivariate Cox regression with other MRI markers of cardiac size and function, inter-ventricular insertion point T1 was not an independent predictor of mortality.
