The Diagnostic Value of FAPI PET/CT in Staging of Newly Diagnosed Prostate Cancer

Overview

This study aims to investigate the diagnostic value of FAPI PET/CT, relative to standard-of-care imaging using PSMA PET/CT, in staging of newly diagnosed PCa. FAPI PET/CT will be visually and quantitatively correlated to PSMA PET/CT resulting in detection rates and target-to-background ratios. If available, histopathology of resected specimens will serve as reference test for operated patients in order to determine diagnostic accuracy. All outcomes are descriptive and serve as pilot for a potential subsequent larger prospective diagnostic study.
