F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is transported into cells via glucose transporters and phosphorylated to 18F-2-FDG-6 phosphate without being metabolized [78]. Normal distribution of FDG is observed in the brain, myocardium, and genitourinary tract.

glycidic
The investigation found no other pathological hypermetabolic lesions, showing a physiological glycidic distribution.
Example sentence:
"Glycidic acid is an organic chemical compound with both epoxide and carboxylic acid functions. The compound is commercially available" (Wikikpedia)
"The Drug Enforcement Administration is finalizing a process of rule-making to designate 3 chemicals known as gycidate, glycidic acid and APAA as list 1 chemicals under the Controlled Substances Act."
Discussion
I found 2 references, 1 which focuses on diabetes and the other focuses on women and the dietary effects of post-menopause.
