Figure 3

(A) In-vivo serial PET imaging with 11C-HED and 18F-FDG in healthy Wistar Rats at different ages (Month 2, 5, 11 and 15). An age-related decline of 11C-HED uptake can be observed, whereas 18F-FDG uptake remained stable at different ages. (B) Retention indices of rats at different ages (Month 2, 5, 11 and 15). Retention Indices decreased with increasing age (Month 2 and Month 5 vs. Month 15, p < 0.03 and p < 0.02, respectively).
