Abstract:The role of MRI to estimate liver iron concentration (LIC) for identifying patients with iron overload and guiding the titration of chelation therapy is increasingly established for routine clinical practice. However, the existence of multiple MRI‐based LIC quantification techniques limits standardization and widespread clinical adoption. In this article, we review the existing and widely accepted MRI‐based LIC estimation methods at 1.5 T and 3 T: signal intensity ratio (SIR) and relaxometry (R2 and R2*) and d… Show more
