Zusammenfassung

Over the past two decades, there have been significant advances in the ability to study the neurochemistry of the living brain using neuroreceptor radiotracers with PET imaging. The greater availability of radiotracers for neurotransmitter synthesis/metabolism, enzymes, transporters and receptors, as well as neuromodulators and second messengers has enabled the evaluation of hypotheses regarding neurotransmitter function and regulation which are generated from basic neuroscience studies, and the investigation of the neurochemical substrates of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Fundamental observations have…
