The way it was explained to me is that abnormal cells use sugar differently than normal cells and they also use alot more. Apparently sugar is like a fuel. This is the basis of a PET scan. You are injected with a glucose solution which will cause abnormal cells to "light up" because of the sugar absorbtion.
