Role of cardiac magnetic resonance T1 mapping in comparison to T2* for cardiac iron overload assessment in transfusion-dependent thalassemia major patients
Abstract Background Cardiac complications are the leading cause of death in transfusion-dependent thalassemia major (TDT) patients due to increased cardiac iron overload (CIO), so this study’s purpose is to assess the diagnostic utility of cardiac magnetic resonance T1 mapping in correlation to T2*...
