flutemetamol F-18
Trade name: vizamyl
Approved
Oct 25, 2013
Flutemetamol F 18 is a radioactive molecular agent that is intended for use with PET imaging of the brain in adults being evaluated for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia. Flutemetamol F 18 consists of flutemetamol, a thioflavin derivative of Pittsburgh compound B (PiB) labeled with the radioisotope fluorine F18 and it selectively binds to cerebral fibrillar beta-amyloid, a peptide involved in Alzheimer's disease. — NCATS
