Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.79CP
PET scans are useful for imaging areas of high activity in the brain. One of the compounds commonly used is an F-18 labeled isotope of the sugar glucose called fludeoxygluoose, or FDG.
- a. Fluorine-18 is produced by reacting oxygen-18 with a proton,
nuclear equation for the production of fluorine-18. - b. Glucose is used in the brain for energy. How do you think a PET scan of the brain of a patient with higher than normal activity would compare to that of a normal person? Support your answer.
