pubmed:abstractText |
A new generation of commercial animal PET cameras may accelerate drug development by streamlining preclinical testing in laboratory animals. However, little information on the feasibility of using these machines for quantitative PET in small animals is available. Here we investigate the reproducibility of microPET imaging of (11)C-raclopride in the rat brain and the effects of tracer-specific activity and photon scatter correction on measures of D2 receptor (D2R) availability.
