Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the use of Gallium-68 prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (Ga-PSMA PET/CT), compared with conventional CT abdomen/pelvis (CTAP) and whole body single photon emission CT bone scan (BS), for detection of local or distant metastasis following biochemical failure/recurrence in post-prostatectomy patients.
