Autoimmune hemolytic anemia: magnetic resonance findings

Idiopathic autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a rare hematological disease typically characterized by extracellular hemolysis. An unusual case of AIHA with interesting magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearances is presented. Possible explanations for the MRI findings are discussed.
