Keywords: Data Analysis, Quantitative Susceptibility mappingTissue iron play a critical role in cognitive functions. However, associations of basal ganglia iron concentration with cognition and emotion in children are less well understood. This study examined the correlation of susceptibility values in the bilateral basal ganglia nuclei with cognitive functions and social emotional capacity in children around the age of seven. The results highlighted that the inhibitory control, collaboration, open-mindedness showed significant association with susceptibility values in the basal ganglia. In conclusion, this QSM study indicated the potential for using brain iron content in the basal ganglia to assess cognitive and emotional performance during the children development.
