Clearer picture: simple pill could sharpen scans for returning prostate cancer
NCT ID NCT05779943
Summary
This study is testing if adding a common water pill called furosemide to a special imaging scan helps doctors see prostate cancer that has returned after surgery more clearly. The pill increases urine flow, which may wash away background signal in the bladder that can hide small tumors on the scan. Twenty men whose prostate cancer has returned based on a rising PSA blood test will get two versions of the same scan—one with the pill and one without—to see which gives a better picture for treatment planning.
