Myelin PET imaging provides a new type of information regarding the integrity of the central nervous system based on molecular imaging of myelin. Preclinical studies have shown [11C] MeDAS uptake in the brain and spinal cord to be an indicator of the microstructural integrity of the tissue.~[11C]MeDAS PET (Positron Emission Tomography) scans will be performed on healthy subjects at 2 timepoints to assess for safety of the radiotracer and to assess its performance in humans. Following measurement of [11C]MeDAS pharmacokinetics and biodistribution, an optimal protocol for dosing and imaging will be established.
This study evaluates the safety of [11C]MeDAS, a PET radiotracer.
