Abstract: | Novel imaging modalities can be used to define targets within the prostate to guide focal therapies, which can theoretically improve the therapeutic ratio compared to conventional whole-gland therapies. We used histopathological reference standards to compare [11C]choline positron emission tomography (PET) with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for delineating malignant intraprostatic lesions for guiding focal therapies. [11C]choline PET was found to be significantly more accurate than MRI. |
