-- Physiological prostate uptakePhysiological prostate uptake
- Uptake in prostate cancer > uptake in benignprostate conditions (De Jong et al. 2002; Hara T et al. 2002, Martorana et al 2006, Scher et al. 2006, Reske et al. 2006) Overall sensitivity around 85%
- Uptake in prostate cancer = uptake in benignprostate conditions (Sutinen et al. 2003, Yoshida et al 2005; Farsad et al. 2005, Giovacchini et al. 2008)Overall sensitivity less than 45%

- 170 prostatectomised pts
- Median PSA was 1.25 ng/ml (range: 0.23–48.6 ng/ml)
- Median PSADT was 7.0 mo (range: 0.97–45.3 mo)
- [11C]choline PET/CT was positive in 75 of 170 patients (44%)
- Multivariate logistic regression showed that high PSA and short PSADT were significant (P < 0.05) predictors of positive [11C]choline PET/CT
Percent of patients with positive [11C]choline PET/CT:
27% for PSADT >6 mo
61% for PSADT between 3 and 6 mo
81% for PSADT <3 mo

54% Like PSA, PSADT is an independent predictor of [11C]choline PET/CT.
[11C]choline PET/CT is very sensitive to PCa tumor growth, as reflected by PSA kinetics.
PSADT should be taken into account by physicians when referring PCa patients to [11C]choline PET/CT.
