Different PSMA Scans; RO Wants To Order One? Thoughts?

[TEBozo]

From RO:

I can place an order for a Ga-PSMA PET/CT on campus, or a Pylarify PSMA PET/CT nearby. Please let me know if you have a preference, thanks!PSA last 4 months:

0.60; 0.58; 0.57; 0.71

Pylarify or 18 F DCF Pyl Pet/CT seems to have better detection rate at lower PSA values with better tumor to background ratios.

Dont know much about the Pylarify PSMA PET but attached is some info on Ga PSMA PET...which at your PSA levels wont show much...unless you have a tumor already which will show...assuming you dont then the other PET appears to be better at lower PSA levels...will have to read up on that type scan. Here are details on PSMA PET Ga...Rick
