Prostate Cancer, Prostate Nodule
Conditions
Brief summary
To perform both PET scans and MRIs in the same setting using a simultaneous PET/MRI scanner.
Detailed description
Primary Objective: --To compare the diagnostic performance of 18F- Fluciclovine pelvic PET/MRI to that of pelvic mpMRI and to determine whether 18F- Fluciclovine pelvic PET/MRI is more accurate than a pelvic mpMRI in detecting pelvic RRPC in men with biochemical recurrence with histopathology as reference standard. Secondary Objective: --To study inter-reader reliability of 18F- Fluciclovine pelvic PET/MRI and pelvic mpMRI among the readers. Exploratory Objective: --To study correlation between SUVmax and ADCmean in the pelvic RRPC.
