Assessing Brain Iron and Its Relationship to Cognition and Comorbidity in Children With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder With Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping.

Brain iron and the dopaminergic system are linked because iron is an important cofactor for dopamine synthesis. Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with dysregulation of dopaminergic transmission.
