PROnostic Interest of 18F-FDG PET/CT in Patients With Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer (mCPRC) Progressing
Overview
The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the prognostic value of parameters extracted from 18FDG PET/CT and 68Ga-PSMA PET in the initial workup and follow-up of patients treated with 177Lu-PSMA in mCRPC.
