Two visits 13\u00a0months apart included clinical assessment and chelation therapy recommendations based on rapid CMR results. Participants were recruited by the local patient advocate charity, who organized the patient medical camps. The average scanning time was 11.3\u00a0\u00b1\u00a02.5\u00a0min at the baseline and 9.8\u00a0\u00b1\u00a02.4\u00a0min (P\u00a0&amp;lt;\u00a00.001) at follow-up. The baseline visit was attended by 103 patients (mean age 25\u00a0years) and 83% attended the second assessment. At baseline, 29% had a cardiac T2*\u00a0&amp;lt; 20\u00a0ms, which represents significant iron loading, and 12% had left ventricular ejection fraction &amp;lt;60%, the accepted lower limit in this population. Only 3% were free of liver iron (T2*\u00a0\u2265\u00a017\u00a0ms). At 13\u00a0months, more patients were taking intensified dual chelation therapy (43% vs. 55%, P\u00a0=\u00a00.002). In those with cardiac siderosis (baseline T2*\u00a0&amp;lt;\u00a020\u00a0ms), there was an improvement in T2*\u201410.9 \u00b1 5.9 to 13.5 \u00b1 8.7\u00a0ms, P\u00a0=\u00a00.005\u2014and fewer were classified as having clinically important cardiac iron loading (T2*\u00a0&amp;lt;\u00a020\u00a0ms, 24% vs. 16%, P\u00a0&amp;lt;\u00a00.001).
