PSMA-based 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT and PET/MRI Pilot Studies in Prostate Cancer

18F-DCFPyL PET demonstrates very high tumor-to-background and tumor specific uptake which may allow for a more sensitive and accurate method for detection of early tumor recurrence and metastatic disease as compared to current PET radiotracers and current standard-of-care imaging including 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy (bone scan), contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
