Excerpt

Recent reports suggest that 223Ra prolongs survival in prostate cancer patients [1]. Bone scintigraphy is considered the gold standard in the assessment of osseous metastatic disease in prostate cancer [2]. 68Ga-labelled prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligand is a novel, highly specific tracer for the detection of metastatic lesions of prostate cancer [3]. …
