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.
