UPDATED - The definitive PSMA systematic reviews!

Those two gigantic PSMA review papers in European Urology - Perera et al 2016 and Perera et al 2020 - have been cited more than 2000 times and have been the definitive reference for anyone writing about PSMA PET/CT in the past ten years. And they have just been updated in two new papers just published in European Urology! Previous first author (Marlon) Perera, has moved to senior author, while Elio Mazzone has led both papers as first author, co-ordinating a massive effort between research teams in Melbourne and Milano. One paper is focused on diagnosis and staging, and the other on assessment of recurrence.

GU Cast co-Hosts Declan Murphy and Renu Eapen are joined from Milano by Elio Mazzoni and Alberto Briganti, and in studio by Marlon Perera, to summarise some of the key findings, and describe the immense effort which went into these papers. Worthy successors to the Perera et al papers of the past!
