With PET we can image at the site of “thinking” 15O- [H2O] 18F-FDG 15O-[H 2 O] 11C- raclopride (18)F- FBAU 11C-raclopride, etc 18F- FDOPA 11C-CFT Dopaminergic synapse

OK. So what’s the problem?

What’s all this about models in PET? Bound raclopride Free raclopride Plasma raclopride ‘stuck’ raclopride Dopaminergic synapse

How can we tell which radioactivity comes from Free tracer Bound tracer Plasma-borne tracer ?

Tracer in each state has a unique temporal trajectory Time (minutes) tracer concentration Plasma Free Bound What the PET scanner sees which is which ?

Divining the shape of each curve depends on kinetic modeling of the data.
