Iron deposition in the pituitary gland in patients with primary and secondary hemochromatosis is a lesser-known cause of pituitary dysfunction and results in T2- and T2*-signal loss on MRI, other brain structures, in which iron deposition can be seen, are the choroid plexus and sporadically the circumventricular organs (e.g., the pineal gland).
原发性和继发性血色素沉着症患者垂体中的铁沉积是垂体功能障碍鲜为人知的原因,在MRI上表现为T2和T2*信号缺失。其他可见铁沉积的脑结构是脉络丛,偶尔还有室周器官(如松果体)。
