Prostate-specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography Before Reaching the Phoenix Criteria for Biochemical Recurrence of Prostate Cancer After Radiotherapy: Earlier Detection of Recurrences

We investigated early use of a special type of scan called PSMA PET (prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography) in patients with suspicion of recurrence of their prostate cancer after radiotherapy. Early scans can detect recurrence before the cancer progresses to a more advanced stage.
