摘要

Flurpiridaz F 18 (FLYRCADO™) is an intravenous (IV) radioactive diagnostic drug being developed by GE Healthcare and Lantheus Medical Imaging for use in positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) to detect coronary artery disease (CAD). In September 2024, flurpiridaz F 18 was approved in the USA for PET MPI under rest or stress (pharmacologic or exercise) in adult patients with known or suspected CAD to evaluate for myocardial ischemia and infarction. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of flurpiridaz F 18 leading to this first approval for use in PET MPI in adult patients to evaluate for myocardial ischemia and infarction.
