UK Cabazitaxel/Carboplatin availability
I have a fairly urgent decision to make regarding my treatment.

PSMA PET Scan - Help Interpreting Report?
Hello, My husband had his first PSMA PET scan done today, and I am hoping someone who understands PSMA PET reports can help us interpret/understand the results as well as what to expect or ask for in terms of any further testing and/or treatment?
