• Susceptibility Contrast in High Field MRI of Human Brain as a Function of Tissue Iron Content (2008, background): “In MRI of heart and liver at 1.5 T, an almost linear relationship was found between the R2⁎ (i.e. 1/T2⁎) relaxation rate and the iron concentration determined from chemical measurements (Anderson et al., 2001; Wood et al., 2004).”
• Clinical recommendations for cardiovascular magnetic resonance mapping of T1, T2, T2* and extracellular volume: A consensus statement by the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) endorsed by the European Association for Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) (2017, methodology): “T2* mapping is an accurate and reliable method for the quantification of cardiac iron load [120].”
• Normal values for cardiovascular magnetic resonance in adults and children (2015, methodology): “For quantification of the myocardial T2* time, the gradient-echo T2* technique with multiple increasing TEs is preferred over the spin-echo T2 technique due to a greater sensitivity to iron deposition [82-84].”
• Standardized image interpretation and post processing in cardiovascular magnetic resonance: Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) Board of Trustees Task Force on Standardized Post Processing (2013, neutral): “5 Tesla): i) Normal cardiac T2* is 40ms [55] ii) T2* < 20 ms = cardiac iron overload [56]”
• Imaging iron stores in the brain using magnetic resonance imaging. (2005, background): “The references were chosen to cover major headings related to observations of iron effects in brain [1–131], liver iron [132–146], MRI developments related to signal effects of iron [147–174], relaxation effects [175–209], magnetic field artifacts [210–218], measuring field effects [219–231] and tar”
