Radiolabeled platelet GPIIb/IIIa receptor antagonists as imaging agents for the diagnosis of thromboembolic disorders

摘要

This invention provides novel radiopharmaceuticals that are radiolabeled cyclic compounds containing carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring systems which act as antagonists of the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex; to methods of using said radiopharmaceuticals as imaging agents for the diagnosis of arterial and venous thrombi; to novel reagents for the preparation of said radiopharmaceuticals; and to kits comprising said reagents.
