Figure 2

a and b: T1-weighted (1A) and T2-weighted (1B) spin echo axial MR images at the level of the heart show marked drop in myocardial signal intensity (arrow) on T2-weighted image, reflecting myocardial hemosiderin deposition. c and d: Axial T2 STAR gradient echo MR images of the abdomen at the level of the liver and spleen (Fig. 2) and liver and pancreas (Fig. 3) show low signal intensity in the liver (L) and pancreas (P) and normal signal intensity in the spleen (S), reflecting hepatic and pancreatic siderosis.
