In this study, we validated quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) in two ex-vivo studies. First, we correlated QSM results in human cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) lesion specimens against mass spectroscopy. Second, we compared lesional susceptibility distribution with histology in CCM mice. The preliminary results demonstrated the excellent sensitivity and specificity of QSM to identify and quantify lesional iron content in CCM.
