Hello Ahmed,

Hope you are doing well.

As far as I know, the CHOLINE PET SCAN has only been offered at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, here in the United States.

Dr. Eugene KWON and others led the way for the choline scan to be offered at Mayo Clinic.

I believe that Mayo Clinic is hoping to also offer choline scans at the Mayo Clinic Center located in Arizona, in the future.

I hope this answers your question.

Many of us here have had the choline scan at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. I have had 3 choline scans over the course of the past year and will have another choline scan upon my return to Mayo Clinic in January.

Hope this is helpful to you,

Thank you ISU,
Hope you are doing well too,
Thanks for complete information,
As per my knowledge American hospital in Paris offers 18 F choline pet ct scan but not c11.
As per my knowledge too c11 is much better and accurate.
I thought it should b in Paris too,
Wish u best of health

Thanks and regards

Per article by Tall Allen

Based on clinical trials, below are various PET indicators in approximate rank order of their sensitivity to detect prostate cancer, and their specificity for detecting it exclusively:

F18-DCFPyL
F18-DCFBC
Ga68-PSMA-HBED-CC (Ga68-PSMA-11)
Fluciclovine (F18 - FACBC)/ Axumin
C11-Choline/ C-11-Acetate
F18-Choline
NaF18
