ABSTRACT
Iron overload is a metabolic disorder characterized by excessive iron deposition in the liver,pancreas,heart,endocrine organs, etc.,resulting in structural damage and dysfunction.The liver is the primary organ for iron storage,and excessive iron deposition induces liver inflammation and fibrosis,which may progress to cirrhosis and even liver cancer,with a poor prognosis.Accurate evaluation and effec-tive treatment can reduce liver injury caused by iron overload and improve patients′survival.
