Florbenazine is a diagnostic imaging agent that selectively targets the vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) in the central nervous system. The fluorine-18 labeled derivative is utilized in positron emission tomography (PET) scanning to assess neuromodulatory functions. Research has demonstrated a significant biodistribution profile in mice, with a high striatum-to-cerebellum ratio, supporting its application in the diagnostic investigation of neurodegenerative disorders, such as dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson’s disease.
