Gadolinium deposition in the dentate nucleus (DN) has been evaluated by T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) and T1 (R1) mapping, but not MR fingerprinting (MRF). This study investigated associations between T1 and T2 values of DN and gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) using 2-dimensional MRF. This study included 101 patients. Region of interest analysis was performed for T1 and T2 values of DN on MRF (T1-MRF, T2-MRF) and T1-weighted images (T1WI ratio). T1 and T2 ratios compared to normal cerebellar white matter (T1-MRF ratio, T2-MRF ratio) were calculated. The type of previous GBCA was confirmed in 79 patients, and linear regressions were performed between T1, T2 values and number of GBCAs. Good correlations were observed between T1-MRF and T1WI ratio (ρ=-0.69, P<0.001) and between T1-MRF ratio and T1WI ratio (ρ=-0.76, P<0.001). Mild correlations were observed between T2-MRF and T1WI ratio (ρ=-0.32, P<0.001) and between T2-MRF ratio and T1WI ratio (ρ=-0.44, P<0.001). The number of linear-type GBCAs was associated with T1-MRF (β=-0.62, P<0.001) and T1-MRF ratio (β=-0.54, P<0.001) in univariate linear regression analyses, and with T1-MRF (β=-0.61, P<0.001) and T1-MRF ratio (β=-0.53, P<0.001) in multivariate analysis. The number of linear-type GBCAs was associated with T2-MRF (β=-0.30, P<0.001) and T2-MRF ratio (β=-0.29, P<0.001) in univariate analyses, and with T2-MRF (β=-0.31, P<0.001) and T2-MRF ratio (β=-0.32, P<0.001) in multivariate analyses. No associations were observed between number of macrocyclic GBCAs and T1-MRF (ratio) or T2-MRF (ratio). The number of linear-type GBCA administrations was associated with lower T1 and T2 values (ratios) in DN.
