Gallium-67 labeled fibrinogen was prepared as a new deep-vein thrombus imaging agent, using deferoxamine (DF) as a bifunctional chelating agent. Excellent physicochemical and biological properties of 67 Ga-DF-fibrinogen were obtained. The isotopic clottability was 85.3%. High stability in vivo as well as in vitro was observed. Studies carried out in rabbits with induced thrombi in the femoral vein showed thrombus to blood radioactivity ration of 11.7, comparable to the value estimated with conventional 131I-fibrinogen 24 h after injection. Remarkable visualization of these thrombi with a scintillation camera provided good evidence for the selective mechanism of this new radiopharmaceutical.

D011877 Radionuclide Imaging The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.

D003676 Deferoxamine Natural product isolated from Streptomyces pilosus. It forms iron complexes and is used as a chelating agent, particularly in the mesylate form.

D005268 Femoral Vein The vein accompanying the femoral artery in the same sheath; it is a continuation of the popliteal vein and becomes the external iliac vein. Femoral Veins,Vein, Femoral,Veins, Femoral
D005340 Fibrinogen Plasma glycoprotein clotted by thrombin, composed of a dimer of three non-identical pairs of polypeptide chains (alpha, beta, gamma) held together by disulfide bonds. Fibrinogen clotting is a sol-gel change involving complex molecular arrangements: whereas fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form polypeptides A and B, the proteolytic action of other enzymes yields different fibrinogen degradation products.

D005710 Gallium Radioisotopes Unstable isotopes of gallium that decay or disintegrate emitting radiation. Ga atoms with atomic weights 63-68, 70 and 72-76 are radioactive gallium isotopes. Radioisotopes, Gallium
