We demonstrated that susceptibility obtained with QSM
was significantly higher in the cognitively impaired
group than the normal group, after controlling for age
in a cohort of volunteers drawn from the community. This
proof-of-concept study underscores the potential value
of susceptibility to distinguish cognition decline at
the early, pre-symptomatic phase.
