Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Hepatology
  • Toxicology

Background:

  • Manganese intoxication and chronic liver failure share similar clinical, imaging, and pathological features.
  • The liver is the primary organ for manganese excretion; impaired liver function can lead to manganese overload.
  • Dietary manganese absorption and elimination are critical factors in preventing manganese toxicity.
