Prostate-specific membrane antigen (psma) radioguided surgery in prostate cancer: an overview of current application and future perspectives

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Background: in_vivo PSMA‑PET imaging in prostate cancer PCa is the most frequent malignancy in men, and it is still considered one of the three "big killers" together with lung cancer and breast cancer. One of the main limitations for PSMA-PET in staging PCa is represented by the low sensitivity in identifying metastatic lymph nodes. PSMA-RGS can be performed with gamma-ray probes, detecting single photon emitting isotopes (e_g Technetium-99 m or Indium-111 labelled with PSMA inhibitors) or with beta-ray probes, detecting the radiation emitted by routinely used PET . . .
