Low cardiac iron levels promote heart failure in experimental models. While cardiac iron concentration (CI) is decreased in patients with advanced heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), CI has never been measured in non‐advanced HFrEF. We measured CI in left ventricular (LV) endomyocardial biopsies (EMB) from patients with non‐advanced HFrEF and explored CI association with systemic iron status and disease severity.
