Summary
This study looked at 14 men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer who were scheduled for prostate removal surgery. Each man received two different types of PET scans to see which one better highlights cancer cells. The goal was to compare the scans' ability to detect and measure the cancer, not to treat it.
