SUVR images at 50-70 min after [11 C]Pittsburgh compound B injection in all patients and HCs.Results:All patients and HCswere PIB-negative except one PIB-positive patient with CBS and one HC. SPM analysis showed high [11 C] PBB3 binding in globus pallidus, putamen, thalamus, subthalamus, midbrain, pons, and peri-rolandic areas in PSP patients comparedwithHCs. PIB-negative CBS patients (n1⁄44) showed high [11 C]PBB3 binding in peri-rolandic areas, supplementary motor area, subthalamus, and midbrain compared with HCs. SUVR images of one PIB-positive patient with CBS showed high [11 C] PBB3 binding in the whole cerebral cortex including limbic cortex like advanced AD patients. Conclusions: The distribution of [11 C]PBB3 binding in the patients was in accord with the known distribution of tau pathology in PSP and CBD. The present study supports the utility of [11 C]PBB3-PET for detecting tau deposition in non-AD tauopathies including PSP and CBD.
