Abstract
⺠Quantitative magnetic susceptibility mapping provides unique gray and white matter contrast. ⺠Susceptibility provides a more intrinsic tissue characterization then phase. ⺠Dysmyelination results in extinction of susceptibility contrast between gray and white matter. ⺠Myelin is the predominant source of susceptibility contrast in the deep brain white matter. ⺠Quantitative magnetic susceptibility is a potential sensitive marker for myelination.
