In vivo studies of 11C isotope distribution in cats given 1-11C-ethanol show accumulation of radioactivity in liver. Redistribution of radiolabel occurs after ethanol loading. Results indicate that some aspects of the matabolism of ethanol in specific tissues can be assessed by gamma-ray scintigraphy.
