Deciding whether to perform pelvic lymph node dissection at the time of prostate cancer surgery could be assisted by using prostate-specific membrane antigen-PET imaging. In favourable intermediate-risk prostate cancer, this imaging technique could be used to identify patients who could forego pelvic lymph node dissection.
