Detection rate, pattern of relapse and influence on therapeutic decision of PSMA PET/CT in patients affected by biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy, a retrospective case series.

AIMS 68Ga-Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT is widely used in patients with biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy. We collected data about patients staged with PSMA PET/CT after BCR (PSA   7 (p = 0.004) and TTR < 29.5 months (p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS PSMA PET/CT showed a high detection rate. This influenced clinical management in a significant percentage of patients, allowing treatment tailoring on the basis of imaging.
