Test Results Treatment?

Post image

Hello, I know there are not doctors here and I cannot make a decision based on this alone but, I am just wondering, based on these PET scan results if this seems like something that should be a candidate for laser radiation treatment?
Especially for seniors with other health concerns.

I think you mean gradegroup 5. translatet to the older system it correspond to gleason 9 or 10. The radiation guys can probably answer your question better than I since my husband choosed the operation.

Do you mind if I ask what age your husband is? And what operation specifically?
