Did you have PSMA pet scan? I had one node positive from surgery that didn’t show on mri or any pre surgical scans

I am scheduled for a PSMA pet scan in 2 weeks. Doctor says I don’t need one but I insisted.

I am favoring either SBRT or low-dose brachytherapy seeds.

I met with a radiation oncologist at UCSF today he laid out all the radiation options. I guess they don’t do low-dose permanent seed bracky therapy at UCSF only high dose brachytherapy

If I go to UCSF, I’m leaning toward SBRT.

Although I’ve heard brachytherapy has as good results or maybe better as SBRT over 10 year period
