Abstract

PURPOSE: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT is widely used in prostate cancer management, but unspecific bone uptake (UBU) remains a diagnostic challenge particularly with [18F]PSMA-1007. Bone uptake metastatic probability (BUMP) score - a composite imaging-clinical model, was compared with PSMA Reporting and Data System (PSMA-RADS, Version 2) for predicting skeletal metastases in UB…
