CARDIAC MAGNETIC RESONANCE IN TRANSFUSION DEPENDENT THALASSAEMIA: ASSESSMENT OF IRON LOAD AND RELATION TO LEFT VENTRICULAR EJECTION FRACTION

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) has replaced all other surrogate measurements in the determination of transfusional cardiac iron overload in patients with thalassaemia major. We aimed to determine the diagnostic value of CMR T2* with respect to cardiac dysfunction (CD) as determined by CMR-derived...
