Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The feasibility of tracer production of technetium (Tc)-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-I&S sterile cold kit, imaging with single photon emission tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT), and Tc-PSMA-radioguided robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (Tc-PSMA-RG-RALRP) technique for lymph node (LN) dissection of primary prostate cancer (PCa) patients were evaluated prospectively.
