Is this Red Spot the Blue Spot (locus ceruleus)?

Wonsick Choe1, Yukyung Lee1, Minkyung Lee1, Kyung Hoon Hwang1.   

Abstract

The authors report brain images of 18F-FDG-PET in a case of schizophrenia. The images showed strikingly increased bilateral uptake in the locus ceruleus. The locus ceruleus is called the blue spot and known to be a center of the norepinephrinergic system.
