Excerpt

68Ga-labelled prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is emerging as the tool with the most potential for imaging recurrent prostate cancer [1]. There have been a few reports of significant accumulation of the tracer in metastatic clear cell renal carcinoma [2] and metastatic breast cancer [3]. The expression of PSMA in tumour-associated vasculature of breast cancer and primary gliomas has been reported [4]. Similar to prostate cancer, 18F-FDG PET/CT is also not the best imaging option in primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The potential of 68Ga-PSMA for imaging primary HCC is not yet documented. …
