They may be looking for cancer cells that don't express PSMA. My husband had C-11 choline PET scans once during and once after he finished Pluvicto at Mayo Rochester. If your facility doesn't do choline scans, then the FDG scan may be part of a similar protocol and a routine scan after several infusions.

Well, you can use a choline Scan to find Neuroendocrine cancer it is not designed for finding it. You really need to do the FDG scan..
