Beta-CIT-SPECT and Neurophysiology in Depression
Serotonin and Dopamine Transporter (SERT, DAT) Availabilities as Assessed by b-CIT and SPECT, and Neurophysiological Measures of Central Serotonergic Activity in Patients With Depression Under Treatment With Escitalopram

Aim of this project is to investigate the effects of escitalopram on monoamine transporter (SERT, DAT) availabilities as assessed by b-CIT and SPECT, and on neurophysiological parameters such as the loudness dependence of auditory evoked potentials (LDAEP) in patients with depression.
