The Whole-Body PET Scan with PSMA-F18 is a highly advanced, targeted diagnostic imaging procedure used primarily to detect, stage, and monitor prostate cancer. This scan uses the Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) F-18 radiotracer, which binds specifically to PSMA receptors abundantly expressed on prostate cancer cells, including small or early metastatic deposits.
Compared with traditional imaging and other PET tracers, PSMA-F18 offers superior resolution, greater stability, and improved detection of small lesions, particularly in lymph nodes, bones, and soft tissues. It delivers clearer, sharper images and is especially valuable for identifying disease recurrence when PSA levels begin to rise after treatment.
This comprehensive diagnostic package includes whole-body PET/CT imaging, precise radiotracer injection, and expert evaluation by a nuclear medicine specialist. By accurately mapping active prostate cancer cells throughout the body, the PSMA-F18 PET scan plays a crucial role in guiding treatment planning, assessing therapy response, and enabling timely clinical decisions to improve patient outcomes.

It is an advanced molecular imaging test that uses a PSMA-F18 radiotracer to detect prostate cancer cells throughout the body. The tracer binds specifically to PSMA receptors, making cancerous lesions obvious on PET/CT imaging.
PSMA-F18 has a strong affinity for prostate cancer cells and provides higher image clarity and stability than other PSMA tracers. It can detect very small or early metastatic deposits that may be missed on conventional imaging.
Doctors recommend it for initial staging of prostate cancer, evaluating suspected recurrence when PSA levels rise, monitoring metastatic disease, and guiding treatment decisions such as targeted therapy or radioligand therapy.
It helps identify cancer spread to lymph nodes, bones, and distant organs. It also detects micrometastatic disease, active tumor sites, and residual or recurrent cancer after surgery, radiotherapy, or hormonal treatment.
The radiotracer is administered by intravenous injection. After a short uptake period, the patient undergoes whole-body PET/CT imaging.
The entire procedure typically takes 1.5 to 2 hours, including tracer uptake time and imaging.
Yes. PSMA-F18 PET scans use a low dose of radioactive material that leaves the body naturally within hours. Side effects are infrequent.
Yes. PSMA-F18 PET imaging is highly sensitive, even at low PSA levels, making it one of the most reliable tools for early recurrence detection.
In most cases, no fasting or special preparation is required. Patients should follow any specific instructions provided by the imaging centre.
The scan provides precise information about cancer location and extent, helping oncologists tailor treatment strategies such as surgery, radiotherapy, systemic therapy, or PSMA-targeted radioligand therapy.
