Box and whisker plots showing the results for SNRs and CNRs using T2w images acquired with T2DL and T2S during MRI of the female pelvis. a SNRs of the myometrium, junctional zone, and leiomyoma were significantly higher for T2DL than for T2S (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p = 0.001, respectively). b CNRs between the myometrium and junctional zone, between the myometrium and gluteal muscle, between the junctional zone and gluteal muscle, and between the myometrium and leiomyoma were significantly higher for T2DL than for T2S (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p = 0.005, and p = 0.007, respectively). Center line = median; top of box = 75th percentile; bottom of box = 25th percentile; whiskers = smallest and largest nonoutlier values. SNR signal-to-noise ratio; CNR contrast-to-noise ratio; T2DL deep learning-accelerated T2-weighted turbo spin echo sequence; T2S standard T2-weighted turbo spin echo sequence
