Differential developmental trajectories of magnetic susceptibility in human brain gray and white matter over the lifespan. 

Bancroft-Wu, V; Batrachenko, A; De Bellis, MD; Langkammer, C; Li, W; Liu, C; Morey, Rajendra A; ... (11 authors) (Hum Brain Mapp, 2014-06)
As indicated by several recent studies, magnetic susceptibility of the brain is influenced mainly by myelin in the white matter and by iron deposits in the deep nuclei. Myelination and iron deposition in the brain evolve ...
