Abstract:
Cardiac insufficiency caused by myocardial iron overload(MIO)is a leading cause of death for patients with thalassemia and primary hemochromatosis,but easy to be missed or misdiagnosed due to the lack of typical clinical symptoms.Cardiac MR(CMR)has high tissue resolution without radiation,having become an important imaging method for evaluating MIO.The application progresses of CMR for assessing MIO were reviewed in this article.
