Compares treatment options for Prostate Cancer
Official title Comparing PSMA PET/CT and MRI-RSI for Finding and Outlining Tumors Inside the Prostate in Men With Newly Diagnosed Prostate Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07568613
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The detection and delineation of the intraprostatic tumor burden plays a crucial role in the personalized treatment of primary prostate cancer. The current gold standard multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is used to guide targeted prostate biopsies for initial diagnostic work up and for definitive focal dose-escalated radiotherapy in intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer patients.
