Cannabinoid subtype 1 (CB(1)) receptors are found in nearly every organ in the body, may be involved in several neuropsychiatric and metabolic disorders, and are therefore an active target for pharmacotherapy and biomarker development. We recently reported brain imaging of CB(1) receptors with two PET radioligands: (11)C-MePPEP and (18)F-FMPEP-d (2). Here we describe the biodistribution and dosimetry estimates for these two radioligands.
