New Prostate Cancer Diagnosis - Lantheus Resource

3 Diagnostic imaging may help you and your doctor choose an appropriate treatment

• Your doctor may move forward with diagnostic imaging to gain a more detailed picture of your prostate cancer

• Prostate cancer imaging provides more insight into cancer progression. It may give your doctor a better sense of where the cancer is, how many tumors there are, and how likely it is to get worse

What are common diagnostic imaging tools? Standard diagnostic imaging methods, such as bone scans, computed tomography (CT), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been used for locating tumors. However, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)–targeted PET/CT has been known to provide better information where standard diagnostic imaging may fall short.
