Flurpiridaz F-18 is a fluorine 18-labeled agent developed by Lantheus Medical Imaging for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. [7]The efficacy and safety of flurpiridaz (18 F) were evaluated in two prospective, multicenter, open-label clinical studies in adults with either suspected CAD (Study 1: NCT03354273) or known or suspected CAD (Study 2: NCT01347710).

Flortaucipir (18 F), sold under the brand name Tauvid, is a radioactive diagnostic agent indicated for use with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to image the brain. [ 1 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The most common adverse reactions include headache, injection site pain and increased blood pressure.
Fluorine-18 (18 F, also called radiofluorine) is a fluorine radioisotope which is an important source of positrons. It has a mass of 18.0009380(6) u and its half-life is 109.771(20) minutes. It decays by positron emission 96.7% of the time and electron capture 3.3% of the time.
The [18 F]FDG-6-phosphate formed when [18 F]FDG enters the cell cannot exit the cell before radioactive decay. As a result, the distribution of [18 F]FDG is a good reflection of the distribution of glucose uptake and phosphorylation by cells in the body. [citation needed] The fluorine in [18 F]FDG decays radioactively via beta-decay to 18 O −.

Florbetapir (18 F), sold under the brand name Amyvid, is a PET scanning radiopharmaceutical compound containing the radionuclide fluorine-18 that was approved for use in the United States in 2012, [4] as a diagnostic tool for Alzheimer's disease.
Fluoroethyl-l-tyrosine (18 F) commonly known as [18 F]FET, is a radiopharmaceutical tracer used in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.This synthetic amino acid, labeled with the radioactive isotope fluorine-18, is a valuable radiopharmaceutical tracer for use in neuro-oncology for diagnosing, planning treatment, and following up on brain tumors such as gliomas.
Fluorodopa, also known as FDOPA, is a fluorinated form of L-DOPA primarily synthesized as its fluorine-18 isotopologue for use as a radiotracer in positron emission tomography (PET). [ 1 ] The most common side effects are injection site pain.
