Healthy subjects needed for PET/MRI Study (eligibility updated)

Healthy subjects needed for PET/MRI Study

We are seeking participants 18-55 years old for our PET/MRI study with the recently developed in-human radiotracer C11-UBC-J for synapses in the brain. This is the first in-human tracer of the synapse in the brain. We are using this tracer to see if there is reduced synaptic density in schizophrenia compared to healthy individuals.

One visit, if eligible, to Stanford Lucas Center for up to 4.5 hours of study participation
1.5 hour scan
1 hour of cognitive testing
1 hour clinical interview, if applicable
$250 for completion of the study

Potential risks/discomfort

Injection of radioactive material required for PET scan
Intravenous (IV) delivery of radiotracer needed
Lying down for a long period of time
