Cancer cells gobble up sugar more than healthy cells (known as the "Warburg effect"). Doctors use a special sugar tracer (a radioactive form of sugar, called fluorodeoxyglucose, or FDG) injected into the bloodstream that lights up in PET scans. Since cancer cells take up more FDG, they show up brighter on the scan, helping doctors spot potential tumors. This method can also be used with other scans (CT scans) for better detail and to monitor treatment effectiveness. Remember, this is a tool, not a perfect test, and doctors use it with other methods for diagnosis. Gulf News en 2026-07-28T07:36:37.364+04:00 Sugar feeds cancer?
