I want it to happen it too, but I have to sadly announce that even after convincing the project manager; it's not going to be available for/from J.S.F as the owners(financiers) are not contented with the cost.

 :(

Miss Sylvia,

Can you contact other MRI operators or hospitals with MRI facility in Pakistan to introduce it here?

Thanks for sharing the information. I would like to clarify one thing about FerriScan setup. We would like to see every MRI sites to be setup with FerriScan, including Pakistan, however, there are always obstacles (eg: technical, funding issues) that prevent FerriScan from being available. It is not within our control if the MRI center cannot meet our basic setup requirement. We always try our best to work with the centers when initialising FerriScan setup.

Sajid has explained why his foundation is unable to offer the FerriScan service.  We now need to approach other Pakistani centers who are treating thalassemic patients. The list of centers that you have provided is very useful. Do you have any contact details to the hematologists from these centers? It would be much easier to contact a person than to send an email to a general address. We get spams so often now that by sending a generic email (without attentioning to a specific doctor), it would be regarded as spam mail and be deleted without reading.

It would be great if anyone of you have contact details to your hematologists and from there I can get in touch with them to provide more details on FerriScan. Any contact details to your thalassemia societies or foundation would be very useful too.
