T1 native myocardial mapping showed significant differences related to sports disciplines and gender. Athletes with the largest LV remodelling, mostly endurance and mixed, showed the lowest values of T1 mapping. Male athletes showed lower values of T1 mapping than females. No significant differences were observed in T2 mapping related to sports disciplines and gender.
