| Main Objective: Study group 1: To assess the utility of [11C]elacridar and [11C]tariquidar for the visualization of P-gp at the human blood-brain barrier. Study group 2: To gain data about whole body biodistribution and organ wise radiation dosimetry of [11C]elacridar and [11C]tariquidar in humans. ;Secondary Objective: Study group 1: To gain data about radiotracer metabolism in humans.;Primary end point(s): Study group 1: Brain time-activity curves of [11C]elacridar, [11C]tariquidar and (R)-[11C]verapamil before and after infusion of 4 mg/kg body weight tariquidar. Study group 2: [11C]elacridar and [11C]tariquidar radiation dose in different organs, normalized to injected dose and expressed as mSv/MBq. | — |
