Mechanism of action

AdreView uses iodine-123 labeled metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG), a norepinephrine analog, to image the integrity and function of cardiac sympathetic innervation. The agent is taken up by sympathetic nerve terminals via the norepinephrine transporter and retained in storage vesicles, allowing scintigraphic visualization of regional myocardial sympathetic denervation. This imaging capability helps assess cardiac autonomic dysfunction in various heart conditions.
