Iron deposition of the gray nucleus is quantitatively assessed by magnetic sensitivity value (MSV)using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), and its’ correlation to metabolic disorders index is also analyzed in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).The results show that increased MSV value of gray nucleus in T2DM patients may be associated with metabolic disorders.
