Research shows correlation between brain iron accumulation and cognitive deficits in ALS, indicating potential diagnostic use of QSM.

Iron accumulation correlates with cognitive decline in patients with early-stage ALS, demonstrating its significance.
Voxel-based QSM analysis revealed notable brain iron deposition patterns in 53 sporadic ALS patients compared to 50 controls.
Quantitative susceptibility mapping offers a promising approach for early detection in ALS and highlights iron metabolism's role.
Findings suggest that iron metabolism abnormalities could serve as targets for therapeutic intervention and diagnostic strategies.

Yun et al. (2025) studied this question.
