  "id": "MLC-T-ONC-012744",
  "term": "copper Cu 64 FBP8",
  "field": "Oncology and biomedicine",
  "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).",
