Purpose: Using the alpha 7-nAChR radiotracer, [ super(18)F]ASEM, we present the first successful human positron emission tomography (PET) studies. Rodent occupancy with three clinically employed alpha 7-nAChR drugs confirms the specificity of the radiotracer. Procedures: Five healthy male subjects were imaged for 90 min following IV [ super(18)F]AS...
