T1
correct, symbol
DEF

[...] constante de temps propre à chaque tissu, caractérisant la relaxation longitudinale des protons de ce tissu, placés dans un champ magnétique uniforme [...] après qu'ils aient été excités par une impulsion électromagnétique de fréquence appropriée.

OBS

L'adjectif «longitudinal» ne s'accorde pas avec «temps de relaxation», mais avec «relaxation». Il faut donc le mettre au féminin.
