Overview
There are no MRI findings associated with [disease name].
OR
[Location] MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on MRI suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
OR
There are no MRI findings associated with [disease name]. However, a MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
MRI
There are no MRI findings associated with [PNH]. However, a MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [PNH], which include:
- Renal cortical signal intensity loss secondary to hemosiderin accumulation in the renal cortex due to hemoglobinemia and haemoglobinuria.
- Hepatic and splenic signal intensity loss secondary to transfusional siderosis due to repeated blood transfusions.
- Intracranial thrombosis
- Splenic vein thrombosis
- Portal vein thrombosis
