Functional imaging of glutamate receptors using PET imaging modality can be used to study numerous CNS disorders and also to select appropriate doses of clinically relevant glutamate-receptor-targeting candidate drugs. Great strides have been made in developing PET imaging probes for the non-invasive detection of glutamate receptors in the brain. This review highlights recent progress made towards the development of glutamatergic PET imaging agents. Focus is placed on PET imaging probes that have been labelled with either carbon-11 or fluorine-18.
