We present a 53 year old woman initially diagnosed as hemangiopericytoma in the posterior fossa on the right side post excision with immunohistochemistry staining for CD34 being positive. Presently, the patient had difficulty in walking due to back pain and pain in left arm. Imaging with F-FDG PET showed low glucose avidity in disease sites but Ga-PSMA PET unequivocally demonstrated multiple skeletal and liver metastases with intense PSMA avidity. Patient received palliative radiotherapy to bone metastasis and was planned for chemotherapy. This report adds to the list of applications of Ga PSMA PET and a possible theranostic target.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
