Routine F-18 fluciclovine-PET/CT scan
Research F-18 fluciclovine-PET/CT scan
This arm will consist of prostate cancer patients who have had an F-18 fluciclovine-PET/CT scan for routine standard of care for biochemical recurrence. These patients would be asked to participate in the study only if there is a need for a standard of care bone biopsy.
This arm will consist of prostate cancer patients who would not ordinarily obtain an Axumin-PET scan for routine standard of care but have a need for bone biopsy. This will include patients with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. For example, a patient with known lymph node recurrence of prostate cancer and suspicious finding on a bone scan would be asked to participate in the study and get a F-18 fluciclovine-PET/CT scan prior to the standard of care bone biopsy.
