AbstractChanges in metabolic activity in tumor cells is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Cancer cells exhibit the Warburg effect with high glucose consumption for their energy needs. This provides the basis for imaging using 18F-2-deoxy-D-glucose for positron emission tomography to assess tumor burden and response to therapy.
