Description
This text provides protocols for the molecular imaging of genes, receptors, and receptor function in the nervous system. They represent the state of the art for studying brain function and dysfunction in the laboratory. It should be of interest to neuroscientists and pharmacologists, and is also suitable for advanced students and researchers in neuroscience, pharmacology, neuroanatomy, and neuropathology.
