Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Mebrofenin, also known as SQ 26962, is a useful ligand to binding radioactive metal ions. Tc-99m mebrofenin is a diagnostic agent for hepatobiliary imaging. Tc-99m Mebrofenin is the radiopharmaceutical of choice for the evaluation of hepatic function. 99m Tc-Mebrofenin HBS has a significant role in the evaluation of PCS.

More Info
Chronic viral hepatitis B and C infections are one of the leading causes of chronic liver impairment, resulting in liver fibrosis and liver cirrhosis. An early diagnosis with accurate liver fibrosis staging leads to a proper diagnosis, thus tailoring correct treatment. Both invasive and noninvasive techniques are used in the diagnosis and staging of chronic liver impairment. Those techniques include liver biopsy, multiple serological markers (as either single tests or combined panels), and imaging examinations, such as ultrasound or magnetic resonance elastography. Nuclear medicine probes may also be employed in staging liver fibrosis
