Noninvasive quantitative imaging of beta-cells can provide information on changes in cellular transporters, receptors, and signaling proteins that may affect function and/or loss of mass, both of which contribute to the loss of insulin secretion and glucose regulation of patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes (T1D/T2D). We have developed and optimized the use of two positron emission tomography (PET) radioligands, [18F]FP-(+)-DTBZ and [11C](+)-PHNO, targeting beta-cell VMAT2 and dopamine (D2/D3) receptors, respectively. Here we describe our optimized methodology for the clinical use of these two tracers for quantitative PET imaging of beta-cell biomarkers in vivo. We also briefly discuss our previous results and their implications and value towards extending the use of PET radioligand beyond the original goal of quantitative imaging of beta-cell mass to the potential to provide insight into the biology of beta-cell loss of mass and/or function and to evaluate the efficacy of therapeutics to prevent or restore functional beta-cell mass.
