Abstract
We present a case series of 5 patients diagnosed with schwannoma and 1 patient diagnosed with astrocytoma who underwent PSMA PET imaging for tumor detection. We retrospectively analyzed the records of 4 male and 2 female patients (mean age, 53.2 ± 13.2) who underwent PSMA PET imaging between March and September 2023. PET interpretation showed increased Ga-PSMA-11 accumulation in all patients with a mean SUV max of 3.11 ± 1.8. This series underscores PSMA PET's potential for CNS neoplasm detection.
