Dopamine transporter density in patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
@article{Dougherty1999DopamineTD, title={Dopamine transporter density in patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder}, author={D. Dougherty and A. Bonab and T. Spencer and S. Rauch and A. Fischman}, journal={The Lancet}, year={1999}, volume={354}, pages={2132-2133} }
Dopamine transporter density was measured in vivo in six adult patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. We have shown a 70% increase in age-corrected dopamine transporter density in patients with attention hyperactivity disorder compared with healthy controls.
