Competition between endogenous neurotransmitters and radiolabelled tracers, as measured by positron emission tomography (PET), may provide a measure of endogenous neurotransmitter flux in vivo. For example, carbon‐11 labelled raclopride has been effectively used to monitor dopamine release following pharmacological and behavioural manipulations. The current study describes a rodent model of amphetamine‐induced [11C]raclopride reduction, which allowed the characterisation of the dose–response… CONTINUE READING
