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 کاملAcardius amorphus: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be helpful in the diagnosis when ultrasound (US) is inconclusive.
An acardiac twin is rare and the diagnosis is commonly achieved from antenatal ultrasound (US) scans. However there have been cases where the appearances of the acardiac twin can be confusing and mimics a mass or tumour, for example, a teratoma. We experienced a case where the findings were unclear from the antenatal ultrasound scans and we had to resort to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), whe...
متن کاملDNA Damages on Blood Cells After Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Introduction: Along with the increased use of cardiac imaging at clinics there is increased attention to the potential risks related to the methods used like magnetic resonance (MR) and it cannot be ruled out that MR can alter DNA structure. The aim of this review is to assess the impact of routine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) scanning on DNA damages in human T lymphocytes....
