Figure 5. — Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pattern of Ferroportin Disease (FD). MRI scans. T2*-weighted gradient-echo sequences were used to detect iron accumulation. (A) Normal subject. (B) FD. (C) FD after completion of phlebotomy program (note that excess iron is still detectable in the liver and spine in spite of normal serum ferritin and transferrin saturation levels). (D) Ferroportin-associated hereditary hemochromatosis: iron accumulation involves only the liver and spares the spleen and spine (arrows).
