NCI: The radioactive form of glucose used in positron emission tomography (PET), a diagnostic imaging procedure.,NCI: A positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical containing radioactive 2-deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-D-glucose. With similar cell uptake as glucose (high in tumor cells), fludeoxyglucose F 18 is not dephosphorylated and further metabolized.
