## Abstract Several vesamicol derivatives have already been proposed for SPECT exploration of the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) which is localized on the nerve endings of cholinergic neurons which are known to degenerate in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. However, most of the
Several recent neuroimaging studies in humans and in monkeys using different radiotracers have reported widely differing values of dopamine transporter (DAT) occupancy by doses of cocaine which are perceived as reinforcing by humans. Here we tested the hypothesis that the measurement of DAT occupanc
