Serotonin Transporter Availability in Patients with Schizophrenia: A Positron Emission Tomography Imaging Study with [11C]DASB

This study failed to detect alterations of SERT availability in patients with schizophrenia; however, this study does not rule out the possibility that schizophrenia might be associated with alterations of SERT density in the cortical regions, where the [11C]DASB-specific binding signal is too low for reliable quantification of SERT.
