Abstract
Patient selection for focal therapy (FT) of prostate cancer requires the assessment of MRI and biopsy results. However, there is currently little guidance for the utility of PSMA PET/CT in FT planning. We describe the case of a man originally considered an ideal candidate for FT based on biopsy and MRI who was found to have a contralateral lesion-harboring cancer detected only on PSMA PET/CT. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05852041.
