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% ...
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 ...
SAN DIEGO -- Using recent diagnostic CT scans instead of CT simulation scans to plan palliative radiation treatments can substantially reduce the time to treatment completion for cancer patients, the ...
In prostate cancer patients experiencing recurrence following a radical prostatectomy, imaging with 18 F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT has been shown to considerably improve detection of active disease as ...
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.
Visual Abstract. Overall survival for patients treated with salvage radiotherapy: real world data from an entire country. A patient with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy and no ...
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 ...
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 ...
