Zusammenfassung: | Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) directed PET imaging has rapidly transformed prostate cancer workup over the past decade and paved the way for a theranostic approach using 177Lu-labelled PSMA radioligand therapy (RLT). This review gives an overview of the underlying principles behind PSMA as a target; the current use of PSMA PET in prostate cancer imaging and benefits compared to conventional imaging; and therapeutic applications including optimisation of patient selection. It also explores the evidence base of PSMA PET for other indications not in routine clinical use and the future of PSMA-directed RLT. |
