Video Transcript:

It's a table, basically, with boxes. It encompasses and contains the miTNM, PROMISE, PRIMARY, RECIP, PSMA-RADS, and E-PSMA concept and criteria all together. On this you have the relevant prostate cancer history, the indication for the scan, primary staging, BCR, PSMA expression assessment before PSMA targeted therapy, some technical parameters that are important, date of scan, the comparison to prior scans, the treatments the patient is on at the time of the scan, [and] how the CT was made. Then some measurement in the salivary glands, in the liver for tumor to background ratio assessments. Then you go by TNM staging. So, you start from the prostate. Both sides, we divided by left, right, apex, midline-based, anterior, posterior. You can check boxes wherever you see uptake or you find suspicious uptake. Number of lesions, seminal vesicles, then the pelvic lymph nodes, extra pelvic lymph nodes, bone metastasis, 1- 2- 3- oligo vs poly, visceral metastasis, the presence or absence of PSMA-negative lesion noted on CT. All that are all summarized into a table that I personally find quite nice to use. These are the main parameters that you can find in these templates.
