Preparing for a PSMA PET Scan: What to Expect

Preparing for a PSMA PET scan involves a few important steps to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the imaging. First, you'll need to follow specific dietary guidelines, which typically include fasting for several hours before the scan. Arriving well-hydrated is also essential. During the scan, a radiotracer that binds to prostate cancer cells will be injected, and you may need to wait for a short period while it circulates. The scan itself is painless and lasts about 30 minutes, during which you’ll lie still on a table that moves through the PET scanner. Following these guidelines will help ensure clear and precise imaging results.
