Unmet Needs and Clinical Challenges for PSMA Imaging
November 12th 2024Oliver Sartor, MD, discusses how unmet needs and clinical challenges for PSMA imaging in prostate cancer patients include standardizing interpretation criteria, addressing false negatives in certain tumor phenotypes, improving accessibility and cost-effectiveness, and developing strategies for patients with low PSMA expression or PSMA-negative disease.
Confirming Eligibility for Lutetium Therapy
November 5th 2024Oliver Sartor, MD, discusses how 68gallium PSMA-11 PET is indeed the preferred imaging modality for confirming eligibility for lutetium therapy, but when unavailable, alternative options such as F-18 PSMA PET, conventional bone scintigraphy, or CT/MRI may be considered, albeit with potential limitations in sensitivity and specificity.
