Excerpt

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) holds great promise in refining the restaging of prostate cancer in the context of biochemical recurrence [13]. Of note, some PSMA ligands are theranostic, i.e., the same ligand can be used for diagnostic imaging and subsequent radionuclide therapy [4]. …
