Opioidergic and Noradrenergic Systems in Central Parkisonian Pain
Sponsor: Hospices Civils de Lyon
Summary
The goal of this study is to evaluate the differences in functional physiopathology of the opioid and noradrenergic systems between Parkinson's patients with central pain and Parkinson's patients without central pain. Using PET-MRI data, investigators aim to observe opioids receptors availability using \[11C\]Carfentanil (µ opioid receptor agonist) and altered α2-AR density with \[11C\]Yohimbine (adrenergic α2 receptor antagonist).

Conditions
Interventions
PET-MRI exam with administration of [11C]Carfentanil
Recording of functional neuroimaging data will begin immediately after intravenous injection of \[11C\]Carfentanil and will last for 51 minutes in a resting state. The dose will be 250 MBq/kg +-10 %.
PET-MRI exam with administration of [11C]Yohimbine
Recording of functional neuroimaging data will begin immediately after intravenous injection of \[11C\]Yohimbine and will last for 70 minutes in a resting state. The dose will be 370 MBq/kg +- 10 %.
