Positron Emission Tomography measures metabolism and detects changes in bodily functions at the molecular level. Computed Tomography produces multiple images of the bone and soft tissue to provide anatomical information. PET/CT superimposes the images to allow the physician to correlate the information from two different exams onto one image. This leads to more accurate diagnosis. PET/CT is used to detect cancer, determine whether cancer has spread in the body, assess treatment, determine reoccurrence, or to confirm cancer free after treatment.
We now perform the PSMA PET/CT
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) injection significantly improves how prostate cancer is detected and treated for men with prostate cancer with:
- suspected metastases
- suspected recurrence
We offer both Pylarify® and Illuccix® injections to allow for better options for our providers and patients. The imaging order should be written: PSMA PET/CT. This will allow us to order the injection covered by the patient's insurance plan. Schedule at 609-380-4175.
