case_images: Liver MRI. T2*-weighted image: the liver and spleen are relatively more sensitive to magnetic substances such as iron in the tissues than the muscle and bone marrow. The diagnosis reached was iron overload secondary to the oral administration of amino acid chelated iron (bisglycinate chelate iron, Ferrochel). MRI: magnetic resonance imaging

case_images: Liver MRI (Figure 1) showed iron accumulation in the liver, spleen, and bone marrow (radiology imaging at Kouseiren Takaoka Hospital); the inflammatory response [C reactive protein (CRP)] was normal; no findings suggestive of collagen disease or tumor were observed, and secondary iron overload due to oral administration of amino acid chelated iron preparations was diagnosed.
