[Diagnostic performance of bone scintigraphy and (11)C-Choline PET/CT in the detection of bone metastases in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer].
To compare bone scan (BS) with (11)C-Choline PET/CT for the detection of bone metastases in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer (PC). ⋯ (11)C-Choline PET/CT yielded better sensitivity and specificity than BS for the detection of bone involvement in patients with biochemical recurrence of PC and allowed extraosseous restaging, with an impact in the clinical management of these patients.
