MRI – Liver Iron Quantification is an advanced imaging technique used to accurately measure the amount of iron deposited in the liver. Using specialized MRI sequences, this test provides a precise and non-invasive assessment of liver iron concentration without the need for biopsy.

This scan is particularly useful in diagnosing and monitoring conditions such as hemochromatosis, thalassemia, chronic liver disease, and patients receiving frequent blood transfusions. It helps in early detection of iron overload and guides treatment decisions such as chelation therapy.

MRI offers a safe and reliable method for repeated monitoring of liver iron levels over time, without exposure to radiation. The procedure is painless and provides valuable quantitative data for effective disease management.

This test is recommended for individuals:

• Suspected of having iron overload disorders
• With conditions like thalassemia or hemochromatosis
• Receiving frequent blood transfusions
• With chronic liver disease
• Undergoing monitoring for iron-related disorders
• Requiring non-invasive liver iron assessment
