Abstract
A biopsy-proven patient with prostate carcinoma aged 70 years was referred to the department of nuclear medicine for radionuclide-based therapy. His prostate-specific antigen levels were >1000 ng/mL, and prostatic magnetic resonance imaging showed an enlarged prostate with a heterogeneous signal and size 3.8x3.7x3.5 cm with few small heterogeneous nodular signals in the transition zone. He was scheduled for 18F prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan before therapy. 18F PSMA PET/CT revealed PSMA-expressing prostate lesions (maximum standardized uptake value ~10.2) with extension into the urinary bladder along with bilateral supraclavicular, mediastinal, retrocrural, retroperitoneal, and pelvic lymph nodes and sclerotic lesions in the entire axial and appendicular skeleton.
