What it covers
PSMA (prostate-specific membrane antigen) PET/CT is a specialized imaging scan used in prostate cancer care.
This two-page overview covers what PSMA PET/CT is, the main reasons urologists order it (initial staging of high-risk disease, biochemical recurrence, restaging and treatment planning, and evaluating candidacy for targeted therapy), when a urologist should order one, and why it is preferred over conventional imaging.
