Introduction: In-vivo quantification of serotonin transporters (SERT) in human brain has been a mainstay of molecular imaging in the field of neuropsychiatric disorders and helped to explore the underpinnings of several medical conditions, therapeutic and environmental influences. The emergence of PET/MR hybrid systems and the heterogeneity of SERT binding call for the development of efficient methods making the investigation of larger or vulnerable populations with limited scanner time and simultaneous changes in molecular and functional measures possible. We propose [C-11]DASB bolus plus constant infusion for these applications and validate it against standard analyses of dynamic PET data.Methods: [C-11]DASB bolus/infusion optimization was performed on data acquired after [C-11]DASB bolus in 8 healthy subjects. Subsequently, 16 subjects underwent one scan using [C-11]DASB bolus plus constant infusion with K-bol 160-179 min and one scan after [C-11]DASB bolus for inter-method reliability analysis. Arterial blood sampling and metabolite analysis were performed for all scans. Distribution volumes (V-T) were obtained using Logan plots for bolus scans and ratios between tissue and plasma parent activity for bolus plus infusion scans for different time spans of the scan (VT-70 for 60-70 min after start of tracer infusion, VT-90 for 75-90 min, VT-120 for 100-120 min) in 9 subjects. Omitting blood data, binding potentials (BPND) obtained using multilinear reference tissue modeling (MRTM2) and cerebellar gray matter as reference region were compared in 11 subjects.Results: A K-bol of 160 min was observed to be optimal for rapid equilibration in thalamus and striatum. VT-70 showed good intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) of 0.61-0.70 for thalamus, striatal regions and olfactory cortex with bias
