"CONCLUSIONS:

68Ga-PSMA PET/CT frequently identifies suspected recurrent disease prior to the accepted Phoenix definition of PSA nadir +2. Prospective outcome studies are required to determine if early identification of local recurrence improves outcomes by increasing the use of salvage local treatments and whether earlier identification of metastatic disease may improve outcomes with prompt initiation of multimodality therapies."
