Popis:	Aims Myocardial T2* cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides a rapid and reproducible measure of cardiac iron loading and is being increasingly used worldwide for monitoring of transfusion-dependent thalassaemia patients. Although myocardial siderosis (T2* 20 ms), the RV ejection fraction (EF) was within the normal range in 98% of patients. When myocardial T2* was
