In this issue of the American Journal of Hematology, Fields et al. report cerebral oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) measurements using an Asymmetric Spin Echo Magnetic Resonance Imaging (ASE-MRI) technique for a large cohort (N= 120) of children including healthy controls (34), anemic controls without sickle cell disease (27), and those with sickle cell anemia (SCA)(59). 1 They found that average OEF in anemic controls was significantly higher than in healthy controls, and that OEF is higher still in SCA. In addition, they found that the volume of brain with elevated OEF was larger for SCA than for anemic controls. In both cohorts, the largest OEF increases were in the white matter and included regions where infarcts were identified by fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MRI.The observations of increased OEF by Fields et al. in SCA contradict the decreased OEF recently reported by Vu et al. Vu et al. used T2-relaxation under spin tagging MRI (TRUSTMRI) to measure OEF in a large cohort (N= 118) of young adults including healthy controls (44), anemic controls (27), and individuals with SCA (47). 2 This study also found that OEF in anemic controls differed from healthy controls and SCA had even larger OEF differences, however, the differences were in the opposite direction with SCA having the lowest OEF. This discrepancy could lead readers to dismiss both methods, not knowing which is correct, but once the details of each measurement technique are considered a reconciliation between these opposite observations is possible.
