Abstract

We present different findings on 18 F-fluciclovine (Axumin) PET/CT and 18 F-NaF PET/CT images in a patient with prostate cancer metastasis. 18 F-Fluciclovine PET/CT scan showed intense uptake in left adrenal gland metastasis, only faint to mild uptake in multiple sclerotic osseous metastasis where 18 F-NaF bone PET/CT demonstrated intense uptake at these sites. Both examinations are needed to accurately evaluate visceral and osseous metastasis from prostate cancer.
