All patients underwent cine, T1 mapping, and late gadolinium\u2013enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. T1 mapping indices were compared between systemic sclerosis patients and controls (extracellular volume fraction, gadolinium partition coefficient (\u03bb), pre-contrast T1, and post-contrast T1). The association between T1 mapping parameters and the modified Rodnan skin score was determined.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There were no significant differences in cardiac structure\/function between systemic sclerosis patients and controls on cine imaging, and 8 of 24 (33%) systemic sclerosis patients had evidence of late gadolinium\u2013enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (i.e. focal myocardial fibrosis). Of the T1 mapping parameters (indices indicative of diffuse myocardial fibrosis), extracellular volume fraction differentiated systemic sclerosis patients from controls the best, followed by \u03bb, even when the eight systemic sclerosis patients with late gadolinium\u2013enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were excluded. Extracellular volume fraction had a sensitivity and specificity of 75% and 75% for diffuse myocardial fibrosis (optimal abnormal cutoff value of &gt;27% (area under receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.85)). In the 16 patients without evidence of late gadolinium\u2013enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, each of the four cardiac magnetic resonance T1 mapping parameters (extracellular volume fraction, \u03bb, Pre-T1 and Post-T1) correlated with modified Rodnan skin score ( R = 0.51\u20130.65, p = 0.007\u20130.043), indicating a correlation between systemic sclerosis cardiac and skin fibrosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The four T1 mapping indices are significantly correlated with modified Rodnan skin score in patients with early systemic sclerosis.
