F-18 FDG PET/CT Scan Maybe More Helpfull Instead of Ga-68 PSMA Scan in the Case of Ductal Variant Prostate Cancer

Abstract

Imaging plays an important role in the evaluation of prostate cancer patients. In recent years, much attention has been focused on 68Ga-PSMA PET-CT in prostate cancer patients and has been widely used for staging, especially biochemical relapse-restaging and therapy response for these patients. We hereby, report the rare case of a ductal variant prostate cancer patient and present both Ga-68 PSMA and FDG PET-CT imaging findings.
