Positron emission tomography (PET) is a molecular imaging modality that enables in vivo
exploration of metabolic processes and especially the pharmacology of neuroreceptors. G …

Several studies have examined the link between the cannabinoid CB1 receptor and several
neuropsychiatric illnesses, including schizophrenia. As such, there is a need for in vivo …

We have characterized the biodistribution and dosimetry of 18F-3′-F-6-OH-BTA1 (18F-
GE067), a newly developed radioligand to visualize and quantify amyloid burden, in healthy …

Adult human studies suggest frontal dysfunction associated with chronic marijuana (MJ) use,
but due to continued neuromaturation, adult studies may not generalize to adolescents. This …

BACKGROUND: Functional neuroimaging data from adults have, in general, found
frontocerebellar dysfunction associated with acute and chronic marijuana (MJ) use (Loeber …

Cerebral cannabinoid receptor (CB1) and cannabinoid drugs constitute a vibrant field in
modern medicine and pharmacology. However, the physiological and pharmacological …

Purpose The type 2 cannabinoid receptor (CB2R) is part of the human endocannabinoid
system and is involved in central and peripheral inflammatory processes. In vivo imaging of …

Despite the important role of cannabinoid CB 1 receptors (CB 1 R) in brain development,
little is known about their status during adolescence, a critical period for both the …

Purpose There is a need for an alternative PET probe, which does not show normal brain
tissue uptake in the evaluation of metastasis to the brain. Therefore, we investigate the …

Objective: Adolescence into young adulthood represents a sensitive period in which brain
development significantly diverges by sex. Regular cannabis use by young people is …
