BACKGROUND: The clinical benefit of venesection in suspected iron overload can be unclear and serum ferritin may overestimate the degree of iron overload.
AIMS: To help inform practice, we examined magnetic resonance liver iron concentration (MRLIC) in a cohort investigated for haemochromatosis.
METHODS: One hundred and six subjects with suspected haemochromatosis underwent HFE genotyping and MRLIC with time-matched serum ferritin and transferrin saturation values. For those treated with venesection, volume of blood removed was calculated as a measure of iron overload.
RESULTS: Forty-seven C282Y homozygotes had median ferritin 937 µg/l and MRLIC 4.83 mg/g; MRLIC was significantly higher vs non-homozygotes for any given ferritin concentration. No significant difference in MRLIC was observed between homozygotes with and without additional risk factors for hyperferritinemia. Thirty-three compound heterozygotes (C282Y/H63D) had median ferritin 767 µg/l and MRLIC 2.58 mg/g; ferritin < 750 µg/l showed 100% specificity for lack of significant iron overload (< 3.2 mg/g). 79% of C282Y/H63D had additional risk factors-mean MRLIC was significantly lower in this sub-group (2.4 mg/g vs 3.23 mg/g). 26 C282Y heterozygous or wild-type had median ferritin 1226 µg/l and MRLIC 2.13 mg/g; 69% with additional risk factors had significantly higher ferritin concentrations (with comparable MRLIC) and ferritin < 1000 µg/l showed 100% specificity for lack of significant iron overload. In 31 patients (26 homozygotes, 5 C282Y/H63D) venesected to ferritin < 100 µg/l, MRLIC and total venesection volume correlated strongly (r = 0.749), unlike MRLIC and serum ferritin.
CONCLUSION: MRLIC is an accurate marker of iron overload in haemochromatosis. We propose serum ferritin thresholds in non-homozygotes which, if validated, could tailor cost-effective use of MRLIC in venesection decision-making.
