- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Detection of local prostate cancer foci by PET/CT scan and multi-parametric MRI[Outcome will be assessed once. After the imaging studies have been performed, and the final specimen retrieved, final analysis will be performed to correlate the results. There is no specific point time for the primary outcome. ]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Correlation of the intensity of 68Ga-HBED-CC uptake with histopathologic Gleason Grade, tumour volume and tumour grade[Outcome will be assessed once. After the imaging studies have been performed, and the final specimen retrieved, final analysis will be performed to correlate the results. There is no specific point time for the outcome. ]
