Test-retest reproducibility of [11C]-l-deprenyl-D2 binding to MAO-B in the human brain

Abstract Background [11C]-l-deprenyl-D2 is a positron emission tomography (PET) radioligand for measurement of the monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) activity in vivo brain. The estimation of the test-retest reproducibility is important for accurate interpretation of PET studies. Results We performed two [...
