NCIt 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).;
