Abstract
PET/CT-guided interventions using specific radiotracers are promising for detecting avid lesions not well visualized with other imaging methods. A 72-year-old man who initially presented with prostate cancer Gleason 5 + 4 (prostate-specific antigen [PSA] = 7.9 ng/mL) underwent radical prostatectomy and node dissection. Three years after radiation, a rising PSA was observed over 6 months with PSA level reaching 1.08 ng/mL. He was evaluated with prostate-specific membrane antigen-based (PSMA) F-DCFPyL PET/CT, conventional CT, F-FDG PET/CT, and C-choline PET/CT. The PSMA F-DCFPyL PET/CT successfully targeted oligometastatic prostate cancer, whereas the other imaging studies were not correct in assessing disease extent.Entities:
