Magnetic resonance susceptibility-weighted imaging versus other imaging modalities in detecting splenic siderotic lesions.

BACKGROUND: Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) has been proven to be superior to T2*-weighted imaging and also other existing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for the detection of iron content and hemorrhage in the brain.
