Only 31% of patients with prostate cancer receiving radiation therapy had a successful CT simulation on the first attempt, while more than half required multiple scans on the same day and nearly 17% ...

An imaging test could safely halve the number of people who need a biopsy for suspected prostate cancer following inconclusive or reassuring results from an MRI scan, new research has found. Findings ...

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-PET/CT imaging identified metastatic prostate cancer in almost half of high-risk cases missed by conventional imaging, a retrospective analysis showed.

Early results support a fully-powered trial of 18F-PSMA PET/CT for prostate cancer detection, according to the investigators. PSMA-PET/CT with the radiotracer 18F-DCFPyl (18 F-PSMA PET/CT) may improve ...

FDA approves Pylarify TruVu, a new prostate cancer PET imaging agent designed to expand access and improve detection of recurrent or metastatic disease.

Pretreatment 18F-PSMA-1007 PSMA PET/CT more accurately identifies prostate tumors compared with mpMRI. Fluorine-18 prostate-specific membrane antigen-1007 positron emission tomography/computed ...

The IAEA is launching a year-long coordinated research project to develop computed tomography-based guidelines on prostate cancer contouring — a critical step in the cancer treatment process that ...

New PSMA PET/CT can detect signs of prostate cancer within elderly patients without the need of a biopsy. PSMA PET/CT scans can detect signs of prostate cancer in elderly patients without the need of ...

More than 70% of patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer remained metastasis-free 5 years after PSMA PET/CT-guided salvage radiation therapy. Whole-pelvis radiation significantly ...

When planning for palliative radiotherapy, clinicians can forgo an additional CT scan on the same day as treatment and instead use a recent diagnostic CT scan, according to a results from a randomized ...

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide and remains a significant cause of cancer-related death. With increasing life expectancy, its incidence is projected to rise steadily in the ...
