A special type of scan called 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT helps doctors agree more often on whether cancer has spread to the pelvic lymph nodes than other scans like MRI or CT — it’s like everyone using this scan sees the same thing, while others keep disagreeing.

A special kind of scan called 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT can find small cancer spots in the pelvis that regular CT or MRI scans miss—especially those smaller than 8 mm—because it sees things differently than just looking at shape and size.

A new kind of scan called 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT is much better at finding tiny cancer spread in the pelvis than older scans like MRI or CT — it catches cancer in nearly 9 out of 10 men where other scans miss it, and it can see really small tumors that regular scans can’t even spot.

A special kind of scan called 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT is really good at telling apart cancerous lymph nodes in the pelvis from harmless ones in men with high-risk prostate cancer — it hardly ever makes a mistake and is just as accurate as MRI or CT scans.

For about 1 in 4 men with cancer spread to the pelvic lymph nodes, a special PET scan called 18F-PSMA-1007 found the cancer when regular MRI and CT scans didn’t see anything — meaning this new scan might catch things others miss.
