Place de l’imagerie moléculaire dans la prise en charge du cancer de la prostate

International audience; In the management of prostate cancer in recent years, innovative therapies have appeared requiring precise and reliable disease detection. In 2021, new generation imaging (PET/CT, multiparametric MRI, PET/MRI) have their place at all stages of the prostate cancer natural history to help target the lesion(s) and guide therapy and improve the results obtained. PSMA PET/CT is currently the leader in this type of imaging with a complete offer during the disease: both from diagnosis, to recurrence or in the oligo-metastatic and metastatic stage resistant to castration with a pivotal role in the PSMA theranostic approach. However, multiparametric MRI also has many detection advantages when the prostate is left in place, which suggests the potential major benefit of hybrid PSMA PET/MRI imaging.
