Altanserin is a compound that binds to the 5-HT2A receptor (serotonin 2A receptor). It is a yellowish solid. Labeled with the isotope fluorine-18 it is used as a radioligand in positron emission tomography (PET) studies of the brain, i.e., studies of the serotonin-2A neuroreceptors. Besides human neuroimaging studies altanserin has also been used in the study of rats.
