Fludeoxyglucose
A radioactive sugar solution used in PET scans to help doctors see how tissues and organs are functioning, particularly useful for detecting cancer, evaluating brain conditions like Alzheimer's disease, and assessing heart function. After injection, the scanner tracks where the sugar is absorbed to identify abnormal areas.
