							We are seeking volunteers with
diagnosis of Schizophrenia or
Schizophreniform disorder to
take part in a brain imaging study.

    You are invited to participate in a research study to test
whether persons with schizophrenia have increased translocator
protein 18kDA (TSPO) that may suggest brain neuro-inflammation.
We will measure the protein with a novel ligand (dye) called [18F]-
Feppa.

   Interested individuals need to pass a medical examination and
screening interview.

    You may qualify to participate if you are:

psychotic episode..
