Do you know your PSMA-tracer? Variability in the biodistribution of different PSMA ligands and its potential impact on defining PSMA-positivity prior to PSMA-targeted therapy by Jan Heilinger, Katrin Sabine Roth, Henning Weis, Antonis Fink, Jasmin Weindler, Felix Dietlein, Philipp Krapf, Klaus Schomäcker, Bernd Neumaier, Markus Dietlein, Alexander Drzezga, Carsten Kobe

“…In this study, we aimed to compare tracer uptake intraindividually in various reference regions including liver, parotid gland and spleen as well as the respective tumor-to-background ratios (TBR) of different 18F-labeled PSMA ligands to today’s standard radiopharmaceutical 68Ga-PSMA-11 in a series of patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer who underwent a dual PSMA-PET examination as part of an individualized diagnostic approach. Results Differences in background activity among different PSMA-PET tracers lead to variations in tumor-to-background ratios (TBR). …”
