Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping Reveals an Association between Brain Iron Load and Depression Severity
Previous studies have detected abnormal serum ferritin levels in patients with depression; however, the results have been inconsistent. This study used quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) for the first time to examine brain iron concentration in depressed patients and evaluated whether it is r...
