Study Summary

This positron emission tomography (PET) study examines the effects of 24 hours abstinence from smoking on return to availability of neuronal nicotinic receptors in slow and fast metabolizers of nicotine.

Primary Outcome

This study uses a mixed design. A within-subject positron emission tomography (PET) study comparing α4β2\* nAChR availability, using 2-\[18F\]FA PET imaging, at two timepoints (1) during smoking as usual; and (2) after 24 hours of overnight abstinence. The order of the PET scans will be counterbalanced across subjects to prevent order effects that could bias the study results. Nicotine metabolite ratio (NMR) serves as the between-subject factor. The minimum amount of time between scans will be
