Your PSMA-PET scan is not going to show anything until your PSA post surgery reaches .2 and even at that level it only has a 30% chance of detecting any cancer cells.

Had a pet scan @2.3psa post surgery. Shows pea sized residual mass. Wanted another after 6mos adt. They say pet scan will show nothing after 5mos undetectable psa. They want mri.Eager to know if adt shrunk residual tumor

I am only going to get one if after 3 months as it has been 1 now shows a bump up from 0 to .4 or higher. I did not know that 30% mark though. Thanks so much for that gkm. I am praying for a 0 reading as that will go a long way.
