description Product Description
2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucopyranose is the non-radioactive analog of 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG), a key radiotracer used in positron emission tomography (PET) scans. This compound serves as a reference standard, analytical reagent, or precursor in the synthesis and quality control of radiolabeled FDG for medical imaging applications.
FDG is primarily employed to detect and monitor cancer by visualizing metabolic activity (glucose uptake) in tissues, helping identify malignant cells. It also assesses the effectiveness of cancer treatments by tracking changes in tumor metabolism. In neurological studies, FDG aids in diagnosing and monitoring brain disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease by mapping glucose metabolism in the brain.
