Cross-sectional and Test-Retest Characterization of PET with [(18)F]FP-(+)-DTBZ for β Cell Mass Estimates in Diabetes

PURPOSE: The vesicular monoamine transporter, type 2 (VMAT2) is expressed by insulin producing β cells and was evaluated as a biomarker of β cell mass (BCM) by positron emission tomography (PET) with [(18)F]fluoropropyl-dihydrotetrabenazine ([(18)F]FP-(+)-DTBZ). PROCEDURES: We evaluated the feasibil...
