In contemporary hemochromatosis, significant myocardial iron overload is rare. Low myocardial T2* and/or T1 values may warrant closer follow-up for accelerated myocardial iron overload even in patients without overt liver overload. Cardiac T2* mapping sequence allows for liver screening at the time of CMR.
