Reproducibility of T2* mapping in the human cerebral cortex in vivo at 7 tesla MRI

To assess the test–retest reproducibility of cortical mapping of T2* relaxation rates at 7 Tesla (T) MRI. T2* maps have been used for studying cortical myelo‐architecture patterns in vivo and for characterizing conditions associated with changes in iron and/or myelin concentration.
