2018-3-2 · Background: The quantification of liver iron concentration (LIC) is important for the monitoring of the body iron level in patients with iron overload. Conventionally, LIC is quantified through R2 or R2* mapping using MRI. In this paper, we demonstrate an alternative approach for LIC quantification through measuring the apparent susceptibility of hepatic vessels using

2001-12-24 · Chemical liver biopsy iron concentration was determined ( Barry & Sherlock, 1971). Thirty‐two of these patients have been followed at the Whittington Hospital Thalassaemia clinic from the time of liver biopsy ( Table I). All patients had been on regular transfusion therapy to maintain a haemoglobin level > 10 g/dl and had received regular ...
2020-11-18 · 1 INTRODUCTION. Liver iron concentration (LIC) measurement is necessary for evaluation of a variety of iron-loading disorders including hereditary HFE hemochromatosis, thalassemia, sickle cell anemia, aplastic anemia, and myelodysplasia. 1, 2 Iron overload is a systemic disorder characterized by a high level of iron in the plasma and functional cells and
The 95% prediction intervals for hepatic iron concentration, given the plasma ferritin, were so broad as to make a single determination of plasma ferritin an unreliable predictor of body iron stores. Variability resulting from factors other than iron status limits the clinical usefulness of the plasma ferritin concentration as a predictor of ...
2019-8-7 · Abstract Our intention is to demystify the MR quantification of hepatic iron (i.e., the liver iron concentration) and give you a step-by-step approach by answering the most pertinent questions. The following article should be more of a manual or guide for every radiologist than a classic review article, which just summarizes the literature. Furthermore, we provide important
