Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder in which the body produces defective hemoglobin. One of the important processes to reduce the complication of major β-thalassemia is blood transfusion that leads to elevated ferritin levels in the blood. Man...

BACKGROUND: The T2* value of interventricular septum is routinely reported for grading myocardial iron load in thalassemia major, and automatic segmentation of septum could shorten analysis time and reduce interobserver variability.
BACKGROUND: Hemoglobin (Hb) is an important protein in red blood cells and a crucial diagnostic indicator of diseases, e.g., diabetes, thalassemia, and anemia. However, there is a rare report on methods for the simultaneous screening of diabetes, ane...

BACKGROUND: The differential diagnosis between iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and thalassemia trait (TT) remains a significant clinical challenge. This study aimed to develop a machine learning-based multi-class model to differentiate among Microcytic-...
Formulas based on red blood cell indices have been used to differentiate between iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and thalassemia (Thal). However, they exhibit varying efficiencies. In this study, we aimed to develop a tool for discriminating between IDA...
