Syndrome
Acute (levodeopa challenge) Ventral striatum (+)
Baseline None
Behavioral correlation (disease severitya) Ventral striatum (pos.)
Steeves Strafella 2009 [11C]raclopride Pathological gambling Acute (gambling task) Ventral striatum (+)
Baseline (control task) Ventral striatum (ICB+<ICB-)
O’Sullivan Piccini 2011 [11C]raclopride General ICB Acute (levodopa + neutral cues) None
Acute (levodopa + reward-related cues) Ventral striatum (+)
Baseline None
Ray Strafella 2012 [11C]FLB-457 Pathological gambling Acute (gambling task) Midbrain ()
Baseline (control task) ACC (ICB+>ICB-)
Behavioral correlation (state impulsivityb) Midbrain (pos.) ACC (pos.)
Payer Boileau 2015 [11C]-(+)-PHNO General ICB Baseline Ventral striatum (ICB+<ICB-) Dorsal striatum (ICB+>ICB-)
Behavioral correlation (ICB severitya,b) Ventral striatum (neg.)

(ICB+>ICB-): indicates baseline D2/3 BPnd increase in ICB+ compared to ICB- subjects

(ICB+<ICB-): indicates baseline D2/3 BPnd decrease in ICB+ compared to ICB- subjects

(+): indicates increased dopamine release in ICB+ subjects

(−): indicates decreased dopamine release in ICB+ subjects

(pos.): indicates positive correlation

(neg.): indicates negative correlation

ACC: anterior cingulate cortex

a:

“wanting” drug (Drug Effects Questionnaire)

b:

Barratt Impulsivity Scale-11
