ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate dopamine D2/D3 receptors status in striatal and extra?striatal re?gions with 18 F?Fallypride PET/CT. Methods A total of 11 healthy volunteers ( 4 males, 7 females, age (43.5±13.7) years) underwent PET/CT at 1 h after 18F?Fallypride injection. Imaging data was analyzed u?sing visual and ROI methods. The SUV ratios of different brain regions to cerebellar lobe were calculated. In?formed consent was obtained from all volunteers. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the PLA General Hospital. Results 18 F?Fallypride was widely distributed in striatal and extra?striatal brain re?gions. Distribution of 18 F?Fallypride was consistent in all healthy subjects and the rank order of receptor con?centration(brain region SUV/cerebellum SUV) was putamen(15.72±3.69)>pituitary(10.24±6.55)>cau?date(8.38±1.26)>amygdala(6.92±1.32)>thalamus(4.87±1.50)>colliculi(3.91±1.08)>substantia nigra (3.20±0.95)>cortex(temporal cortex 2.11±1.34, parietal cortex 1.51±0.57, occipital cortex 1.31± 0?11, frontal cortex1?30±0.25). Conclusion 18F?Fallypride PET/CT is suitable to study D2/D3 recep?tors status in striatal and extra?striatal brain regions.
