@wellness100: This is exactly the type of info I was looking for, like @msciulli comment to "check out Dr. Kwon’s (Mayo doctor) videos. I believe they are on YouTube and the Prostate Cancer Research Institute. He is a big believer in scans to monitor post treatment cancer." It is intuitively obvious that scanning should be a part of PCa analysis, post treatment, and PSMA PET scans are a good, albeit limited, first step.

I think we are all 'layman' on the MCC and free to say what we believe without any institutional bias. I am fortunate to have a friend who is a retired urologist and we can talk under strict 'cone of silence' as he's well known to all my current Drs.

Well, it seems the scientist have developed a medicine that both finds the cancer cell and kills it at the same time. They might even have FDA approval to go on trial. Even though that may still take years, to be clinically available. There is als sketchy info as to how sensitive, the success rate etc. Still, it is another revolution. Like it is a scan and cure at the same time.
