Choline PET and PET/CT represent high sensitivity and specificity techniques for the detection of locoregional and distant metastases in PCa patients with recurrence of disease. Moreover, a high diagnostic odds ratio was found for the identification of lymph node disease in patients with biochemical recurrence of PCa.

FDG PET/CT is a valuable tool both in treatment decision-making and for predicting survival and progression in patients affected by RCC.

A high GS at diagnosis is a strong predictive factor for positive (18)F-choline PET/CT scan results for recurrent PCa, even when the PSA level is low (i.e., ≤1 ng/mL).
