Abstract

(11)C-Acetate shows marked uptake in prostate cancer and is more sensitive in detection of prostate cancer than is (18)F-FDG PET. (11)C-Acetate represents a new tracer for detection of prostate cancer with PET, measuring radiopharmaceutical uptake pathways that are different from those measured by (18)F-FDG.
