First seen Mar 17, 2026 · Last updated Jun 04, 2026 · Updated 16 times
Summary
This early-phase study at Yale University is testing a new radioactive tracer called [18F]GATT-44 to see how well it can image GABA transporters in the brain using PET scans. The study involves 32 healthy adults aged 18 to 60. The goal is to understand how the tracer moves through the body, how it binds to brain targets, and to measure the radiation exposure. This is a research study to improve brain imaging methods, not a treatment.
