Measurement of Anti-Androgen Response Using Fluorine-18 Fluorocholine PET/CT in Androgen-Insensitive Prostate Cancer

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether positron emission tomography / computed tomography (PET/CT) using fluorine-18 fluorocholine as an imaging agent can characterize regional responses to anti-androgen therapies in a manner that in the future aid in the customized planning of treatments for patients with androgen-insensitive prostate cancer.
