Detecting Metastatic Pelvic Lymph Nodes by <sup>18</sup>F-2-Deoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography in Patients with Prostate-Specific Antigen Relapse after Treatment for Localized Prostate Cancer

Abstract

These results suggest that FDG-PET may be a valuable diagnostic tool in the staging of pelvic lymph nodes in patients with PSA relapse after treatment of localized prostate cancer when the whole body bone scan is negative and pelvic CT findings are equivocal.
