PSMA PET/CT for detecting prostate cancer
2018 14 Feb
German researchers have found a new marker for differentiating cancerous tissue from healthy tissue in prostate cancer patients. Based on their study, the maximum standardised uptake value (SUVmax) on Gallium-68 prostate specific membrane antigen (68Ga-PSMA) PET/CT scans correlates with PSMA-expression in primary prostate cancer. With this method,... Read more
