"Remission" for oligometastatic prostate cancer

I've heard there's some research in the pipeline for detecting dormant cancer cells (which don't show up in any current screening). Perhaps I'll be around long enough to see that roll out, so that they can test my spine and say "yes, you still have dormant prostate-cancer cells there" or "no, you don't, so you can stop ADT." But as of today, that's just dreaming.
