BACKGROUND - There are numerous randomized trials to guide the management of patients with localized (and metastatic) prostate cancer, but only a few (mostly retrospective) studies have specifically addressed node-positive patients.

We performed critical reviews of EMBASE, Web of Science (including MEDLINE) and Cochrane databases in October 2016 according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis statement.
Accurate risk stratification remains a barrier for the safety of active surveillance in patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer. [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (68Ga-PSMA PET/CT) and the maximum Standardized Uptake Value (SUVmax) may improve risk stratification within this population.
68Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen-11 (68Ga-PSMA-11) is a recently developed positron emission tomography (PET) tracer that can detect prostate cancer (PC) relapses and metastases with high contrast resolution.

In patients treated for prostate cancer, a rising serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level is a first sign of relapse, but imaging is needed to determine the localization of the recurrence, which may be local, in lymph nodes, and/or metastatic.
Accurate quantification of tracer uptake in small tumors using positron emission tomography (PET) is hampered by partial volume effects as well as by methods of volume of interest (VOI) delineation.
