There is a clinical need for a non-invasive diagnostic
test to assess spleen function. Quantitative splenic
hemodynamics, assessed using non-contrast 4D flow MRI,
demonstrate differences between patients with severe and
mild thrombocytopenia and may be useful to distinguish
patients with hypersplenism associated thrombocytopenia
from those with thrombopoetin deficiency.
