Cardiac and Hepatic T2*-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Abstract Background Iron overload is the main transfusion related side effects in patients with transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathies. Severe iron deposition in tissues leads to organ dysfunction. Many organs can be affected such as heart, liver, and endocrine organs. Cardiac failure and liver fibrosis are the consequent of Iron overload in transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathy. Magne...

متن کاملOn T2* magnetic resonance and cardiac iron.
BACKGROUND Measurement of myocardial iron is key to the clinical management of patients at risk of siderotic cardiomyopathy. The cardiovascular magnetic resonance relaxation parameter R2* (assessed clinically via its reciprocal, T2*) measured in the ventricular septum is used to assess cardiac iron, but iron calibration and distribution data in humans are limited. METHODS AND RESULTS Twelve h...
متن کاملT2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance in acute cardiac disease
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) using T2-weighted sequences can visualize myocardial edema. When compared to previous protocols, newer pulse sequences with substantially improved image quality have increased its clinical utility. The assessment of myocardial edema provides useful incremental diagnostic and prognostic information in a variety of clinical settings associated with acute my...
متن کاملT2-cardiac magnetic resonance: has Elvis left the building?
The region of myocardium hypoperfused during ischemia, also known as the area at risk (AAR), has sought our attention since the earliest understandings of the wavefront of progressive myocardial infarction (MI) due to acute coronary syndromes (ACS).1 Edema took center stage as evidence accrued that cardiomyocytes take on water in the setting of ischemia and reperfusion2; this, in turn, led to t...
