Noradrenergic dysfunction has been consistently implicated in depression. Much of the evidence, though, has been indirect, such as an attenuated growth hormone response to the alpha2-adrenoceptor agonist clonidine. To more directly examine central functioning of the noradrenergic system in depression, we have used [15O] H2O positron emission tomography (PET) to measure cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in combination with clonidine as a neuromodulatory probe.
