Copper Cu 64 FBP8

**Semantic type:** Pharmacologic Substance

**Definition:** A radioconjugate consisting of fibrin binding probe 8 (FBP8), a fibrin-targeting cyclic peptide, labeled with the radioisotope copper Cu 64, which may be used to image fibrin upon positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Upon administration of copper Cu 64 FBP8, the FBP8 moiety selectively targets and binds to fibrin. This allows for visualization of fibrin-containing thrombus and emboli upon PET/MR imaging and may help in the diagnosis of arterial thrombosis, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).

**Synonyms:** - 64Cu-FBP8 - Copper-64 labeled Fibrin Binding Probe 8 - [64Cu]FBP8
