Abstract
PSMA PET can only be performed in France in the context of a temporary authorization for use (ATU) granted by the ANSM only in the event of biological recurrence of prostate cancers with a normal or equivocal Fucyclovine or Choline PET scan. We present the experience of the Léon Bérard cancer centre and report on the experience of 3 other French centres that have published their results obtained within the framework of this ATU. Despite the absence of histological comparison of our results, the evidence of suspicious lesions on PSMA PET examination may induce changes in patient management in almost 2/3 of the patients. This is consistent with the already abundant results in the literature, which show a clear superiority of PSMA PET over Choline PET for the diagnosis of biological recurrence of prostate cancer.
