• Magnetic susceptibilities in deep gray matter nuclei increased with age (postmenstrual age ≤ 1000 days) in a large number of pediatric patients. • The normal development group showed higher susceptibility values than the delayed development group in the basal ganglia and ventrolateral thalamic nucleus at early postnatal age (PMA ≤ 285 days).
