M59, Gleason4+3, T2C, PSA7.8
According to the Briganti nomogram I have 7.4% risk for nodal metastases.
Nano-MRI can detect mets down to 2 mm in lymph nodes.
Current CT scans and MRIs don't show any mets outside prostate, but they are not as good as PSMA/PET+Nano-MRI combo.
Question is, is it worth it doing this?
Would you do it?
Questions--What have you decided to do to treat your prostate cancer?? Does it show as still within the capsule?? Who is paying for this, because insurance may not approve?? Have you made an appointment to discuss treatment decisions and move towards doing something?? If you are paying and money is no issue then have the tests and select a treatment. Seems like analysis paralysis is taking hold...

I would ping Tall_Allen and request his opinion on this question.
