Positron-emitting radioligands for imaging neuroleptic receptors
Description:
A series of /sup 18/F-labeled butyrophenones (benperidol, haloperidol, spiroperidol and N-methylspiroperidol) were evaluated in baboons and rats with respect to potential utility as radioligands for studying neuroleptic receptors in the living human brain by positron emission tomography. These compounds were administered to baboons, and the radioactivity distributions to the striatum, and to the cerebellum were determined by PET at times up to 8 hours after isotope injection. 4 refs.
