The role of serotonin in CNS function and in many neuropsychiatric diseases (e.g., schizophrenia, affective disorders, degenerative dementias) support the development of a reliable measure of serotonin receptor binding in vivo in human subjects. To this end, the regional distribution and intrasubjec

Positron emission tomography (PET), following an intravenous injection of [carbonyl-(11)C]WAY 100635, was used to image central 5-HT(1A) receptors in rat following pretreatment with graded doses of (-)-pindolol (0.001-3 mg/kg, i.v.). The use of PET had advantages over ex vivo radioligand binding met
## Abstract Muscarinic cholinergic Ml and M2 receptors in young and aged adult male volunteers were studied using [N‐^11^C‐methyl]‐benztropine, a specific muscarinic cholinergic receptor ligand, and high resolution positron emission tomography (PET). A regionally specific pattern of decreased bindi
