Choline PET/CT in Radiation Treatment of local recurrence 60 pts with biochemical progression after radical prostatectomy. Median PSA before RT: 0.9 ng/mL High-dose salvage radiation therapy delivered up to total dose of 80Gy to choline PET/CT-positive area. Mean follow-up: 31.2 months, 76.6% pts free of recurrence. 3-year biochemical progression-free survival rate: 72.5%.

18F-choline PET/CT-driven high- dose salvage radiation therapy seems to be feasible and well tolerated, with a low rate of toxicity.
