This educational webinar features a panel of experts from Nuclear Medicine, Urology and Oncology, who are involved in the diagnosis and management of Prostate Cancer. By understanding the benefits of PSMA imaging, a Urologist’s timely referral can positively impact the patient’s journey and ultimately their quality of life. The clinical benefits of a prompt and accurate diagnosis of Prostate CA, using PSMA-11 PET/CT, will be reviewed by the faculty.
Upon completion of this CME activity the healthcare provider should be able to:
-
Discuss the clinical benefits of PSMA Imaging for the diagnosis and management of prostate cancer
-
Describe patient considerations for 68GA PSMA-11 PET/CT
-
Articulate the clinical implications supporting the timely diagnosis of prostate cancer
-
Implement guidelines of when to order 68GA PSMA-11 vs other imaging modalities (Bone scan, CT, MRI)
-
Implement PSMA Imaging practice considerations to improve outcomes and patient management
This program is made possible through an unrestricted educational grant from Telix Pharmaceuticals
