Abstract:
Prostate cancer (PCa) incidence is increasing in China.Because of the limited clinical symptoms,early detection of PCa is critical and difficult.Current clinical diagnostic methods for localizing PCa including both the conventional anatomic imaging and histological techniques have many problems.Enormous novel PCa specific molecular probes have been evaluated.Those probes have substantially improved the diagnostic accuracy and specificity of PCa.This review briefly introduces the conventional noninvasive imaging techniques for PCa diagnosis.Nuclear medicine probes that have great clinical value for PCa molecular imaging are also discussed.
