This study shows normal distribution pattern, range of SUVs, and physiological variants of Ga-PSMA-11. In addition, several potential pitfalls were documented to prevent misinterpretations of the scan.

PSMA PET/CT imaging seems to be a valuable imaging modality for evaluation of primary prostate cancer and it seems to have potential for the detection of lymph node and bone metastases. Early images 5 min p.i. can help to better distinguish between urinary bladder (before tracer accumulation occurs) and tumour lesions.

PET/CT with Ga-PSMA is a valuable tool for assessing recurrence of PCa with a high sensitivity in patients who have PSA levels between 0.2 and 5 ng/ml. In addition, this study suggests that PSMA PET/CT can be used in patients with very low (<0.2 ng/ml) but increasing PSA levels, which, in many cases, may influence further clinical management.
