PSMA Scan
PSMA PET/CT Scan: Advanced Technology for Accurate Prostate Cancer Diagnosis
The PSMA PET/CT scan is one of the most advanced techniques available for diagnosing and monitoring prostate cancer, enabling early and precise detection through innovative and cutting-edge imaging technology.
What is PSMA?
PSMA, or “Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen,” is a protein found in over 95% of prostate cancer cells, making it an ideal target for highly accurate medical imaging. It is also present in smaller amounts in healthy prostate cells.
How Does the Scan Work?
-
Injecting the Radiotracer:
- A very small amount of a short-lived radioactive substance is injected into the bloodstream through a single shot.
-
Radiotracer Binding:
- The radiotracer binds to PSMA receptors in cancerous cells.
-
Dual Imaging:
- Positron Emission Tomography (PET) detects the signals from the radiotracer, while Computed Tomography (CT) provides precise anatomical images.
Benefits of PSMA PET/CT
-
Exceptional Accuracy:
- Detects cancerous cells even in their earliest stages.
-
Comprehensive Insight:
- Maps the spread of cancer to surrounding tissues and distant organs.
-
Precise Treatment Planning:
- Provides detailed information for guiding surgical or radiotherapy procedures.
-
Effective Monitoring:
- Tracks disease progression and evaluates treatment response regularly.
