Clinical significance of volumetric 68Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen PET/computed tomography parameters in prostate cancer staging

Volumetric 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT parameters, particularly TL-PSMA, provide clinically relevant information for prostate cancer staging beyond conventional SUV metrics and PSA. Bilobar intraprostatic PSMA uptake is associated with aggressive disease and increased metastatic risk and may serve as a useful imaging marker in initial staging.

Abstract

Volumetric 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT parameters, particularly TL-PSMA, provide clinically relevant information for prostate cancer staging beyond conventional SUV metrics and PSA. Bilobar intraprostatic PSMA uptake is associated with aggressive disease and increased metastatic risk and may serve as a useful imaging marker in initial staging.
