Abstract

Multiparametric MR imaging with endorectal coil is superior for the detection of local recurrence, PET/CT is superior for pelvic LN metastasis, and both were equally excellent for pelvic bone metastasis. (11)C-choline PET/CT and pelvic multiparametric MR imaging are complementary for restaging prostatectomy patients with suspected recurrent disease.
