Abstract
► Magnetic susceptibility contrast reflects the magnetic properties of tissues. ► Deoxyhemoglobin, iron, and myelin contribute to susceptibility contrast in brain. ► Their microscopic distribution affects susceptibility contrast. ► Anisotropic distribution can introduce a contrast dependence on fiber orientation. ► In white matter, cellular compartment specific contrast can be observed.
