SLC6A3 and Parkinson disease: A report on the ability of [18F]CFT to reflect nigral dopaminergic cell loss in a rat model of Parkinson's disease [7] as well as a study comparing the brain accumulation, metabolism, and kinetics of [18F]CFT and [18F]CFT-FP [8] have shown that [18F]CFT can be used to image DAT in rats.
