Abstract

Next-generation prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography imaging provides unprecedented accuracy for prostate cancer (PC) detection and can provide detailed disease metrics, which we summarize as a PSMA spatial biomarker (PSMA-SB). Overall survival data confirm that PSMA-SB can differentiate aggressive PC from indolent PC. PSMA-SB maps could be integrated with multiomics data to improve understanding of total-body cancer heterogeneity and phenotype.
