The Whole-Body PET Scan with Choline C-11 is a specialised molecular imaging test primarily used to detect, stage, and monitor prostate cancer, particularly in cases of biochemical recurrence when PSA levels begin to rise after surgery or radiotherapy.
Choline C-11 is a radiotracer that is rapidly taken up by cancer cells due to their increased cell membrane synthesis. This makes it highly effective for identifying early or subtle metastatic lesions—especially in lymph nodes, bones, and soft tissues—that may not be visible on CT, MRI, or bone scans.
This package includes a comprehensive whole-body C-11 Choline PET/CT performed by highly experienced nuclear medicine specialists using advanced PET-CT scanners.
The scan provides high-resolution images of metabolically active tumour sites, enabling more accurate localisation of recurrent disease and helping clinicians plan targeted, personalised treatment strategies.
Choline C-11 PET is considered a powerful imaging tool in recurrent prostate cancer management due to its ability to detect disease even when PSA levels are low.
