Dynamic fluctuations in brain iron content during migraine attacks: insights from relaxometry and diffusion tensor imaging
Our study showed a decrease and increase in iron content during the migraine cycle. Furthermore, during a migraine attack, white matter iron content increased, accompanied by a decrease in anisotropic tissue components, suggesting additional changes in vascular components.
