TLDR
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 and a high diagnostic odds ratio was found for the identification of lymph node disease in patients with biochemicalRecurrence of PCa.Abstract:
AimThe increase of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) after radical retropubic prostatectomy (RP) or external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is the most sensitive tool for detecting prostate cancer (PCa) recurrence, although this measure cannot distinguish between local, regional, or distant recurrence.

TL;DR: The presented expert voting results can be used for support in areas of management of men with APC where there is no high-level evidence, but individualised treatment decisions should as always be based on all of the data available.

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in Oncology
TL;DR: FDG-PET/CT proved more sensitive than contrast-enhanced CT scan in staging of several type of lymphoma or in detecting widespread tumor dissemination in several solid cancers, such as breast, lung, colon, ovary and head and neck carcinoma, and the stage of patients was upgraded.

TL;DR: Salvage LND may represent a therapeutic option for patients with BCR after RP and nodal pathologic uptake at 11C-choline PET/CT scan and the presence of retroperitoneal lymph node metastases were significantly associated with the risk of CR.

PET/CT with 11 C-choline for evaluation of prostate cancer patients with biochemical recurrence: meta-analysis and critical review of available data
Stefano Fanti,Silvia Minozzi,Paolo Castellucci,Sara Balduzzi,Ken Herrmann,Bernd J. Krause,Wim J.G. Oyen,Arturo Chiti +7 more
TL;DR: The data confirm the very good accuracy of 11C-choline PET for detection of lymph node metastases and/or distant lesions in a single examination in patients with biochemical relapse, as well as a high variability in the observed prevalence of any relapse.

TL;DR: In men who had undergone radical prostatectomy for pathologically advanced prostate cancer, adjuvant radiotherapy resulted in significantly reduced risk of PSA relapse and disease recurrence, although the improvements in metastasis-free survival and overall survival were not statistically significant.
