Abstract
To harmonize the use of color for MR relaxometry maps and therefore recommend the use of specific color-maps for representing , , and maps and their inverses. Perceptually linearized color-maps were chosen to have similar color settings as those proposed by Griswold et al. in 2018. A Delphi process, polling the opinion of a panel of 81 experts, was used to generate consensus on the suitability of these maps. Consensus was reached on the suitability of the logarithm-processed Lipari color-map for and the logarithm-processed Navia color-map for and . There was consensus on color bars being mandatory and on the use of a specific value indicating "invalidity." There was no consensus on whether the ranges should be fixed per anatomy. The authors recommend the use of the logarithm-processed Lipari color-map for displaying quantitative maps and maps; likewise, the authors recommend the logarithm-processed Navia color-map for displaying , , , and maps. This work originated with the Quantitative MR Study Group of the International Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM); it has the approval of the Publication Committee and of the Board of the ISMRM.
