The same investigator at Stanford (Andrei Iagaru) is also doing a Ga68-PSMA-PET/CT trial. Maybe you can get both. (They probably both require a bone scan)

Allen,

Great suggestion - I have no idea how you keep on top of this stuff...but, we all appreciate it!

I pulled the trial up and it looks like they haven't yet accepted participants. I will contact them tomorrow, and post the results of my inquiry (timing of participant acceptance and more detail on criteria of acceptance into trial).

Thank you

It says the study start date is February 2016 - but studies sometimes get delayed. I've been closely watching the technology race for the most accurate PET scan. It's exploded in the last year. Most everybody hated the C-11 scans because of handling issues.
