Does fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose metabolic imaging of tumours benefit oncology?

European Journal of Nuclear Medicine
C S BrockP Price

Abstract

Fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG) is a metabolic marker, which follows the same route into cells as that of glucose, and it can be radiolabelled with fluorine-18, 18F-FDG making it suitable for imaging with positron emission tomography (PET). The fact that rapidly proliferating cells such as tumour cells accumulate 18F-FDG more avidly than those with a normal turnover rate has given rise to its potential in oncology. The rationale and previous published uses of 18F-FDG in oncology are reviewed, together with the various analysis techniques and associated methodological difficulties.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
