Influence of trigger PSA and PSA kinetics on (11)C-choline PET/CT detection rate in patients with biochemical relapse after radical prostatectomy.
UNLABELLED The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) at the time of (11)C-choline PET/CT (trigger PSA), PSA velocity (PSAvel), and PSA doubling time (PSAdt) on (11)C-choline PET/CT detection rate in patients treated with radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer, who showed biochemical failure during follow-up. METHODS A total of 190 pati...
متن کاملThe optimal timing to perform 18F/11C-choline PET/CT in patients with suspicion of relapse of prostate cancer: trigger PSA versus PSA velocity and PSA doubling time.
In the present short communication we considered the main publications focused on trigger prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and PSA kinetics that systematically compared 18F to 11C-choline PET/CT in order to establish the optimal time to perform choline PET/CT in relation to the trigger values and velocity, as well as doubling time of PSA serum levels.
متن کاملComparison of Pathological and Biochemical Outcomes after Radical Prostatectomy in Korean Patients with Serum PSA Ranges
The aim of this study was to assess surgical outcome at radical prostatectomy (RP) in Korean men with a serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level of 2.5 to 3.0 ng/mL and compared with those of patients who had a PSA level of 3.0-4.0 and 4.0-10.0 ng/mL. We retrospectively compared clinico-pathological characteristics and biochemical recurrence (BCR) risk in patients with PSA level of 2.5-3.0 (...
متن کاملDetermination of biochemical relapse after radical prostatectomy by biological detection limit (BDL) after cystoprostatectomy using two PSA assays.
The monitoring of PSA values following prostatectomy demands for the use of highly sensitive tests with low detection level. The possibilities to use the EIA Dialab test to monitor the PSA values after radical prostatectomy for early detection of persistent diseases were investigated by determining the biological detection limit (BDL) in serum of patients who unrewent cystoprostatectomy. The ob...
متن کاملSerum PSA, Gleason Score and Clinical Staging in Predicting Biochemical (PSA) Failure After Radical Prostatectomy for Carcinoma of Prostate
Background: I t has been suggested that pre-operative serum PSA, Gleason Score of the tumour as well as stage of the tumour may predict the possibility of PSA (Biochemical) recurrence after radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer. Aims: To investigate and to confirm the relationship between biochemical failure rates with regard to: serum PSA levels; Gleason score of prostate biopsy ...
