Quantitative MRI evaluation of iron deposition in patients with transfusion-dependent thalassemia: clinical management insights
Patients with TDT exhibited significant organ-specific iron overload. These findings highlight the importance of routine MRI screening for monitoring and managing iron overload in patients with TDT. Pituitary, pancreas, and kidney may have similar iron-loading mechanisms.
