Abstract
A method of detecting iron-related entities in a region of interest, is disclosed. The method may comprise: receiving at least two Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) signals from each of at least two different locations in the region of interest; calculating at least four MRI parameters from the MRI signals; and determining a presence of at least two different iron-related entities in the region of interest based on the at least four MRI parameters.
