We report the case of a 74-year-old man who had undergone radical prostatectomy for prostatic cancer 6 months earlier. Elevated prostate-specific antigen during follow-up prompted 18 F-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligand PET/CT ( 18 F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT) to search for new manifestations of prostate cancer, revealing an increased focal uptake (SUV max , 5.9) in the left cochlear/pericochlear temporal bone and equivocal PSMA-RADS-3a external iliac nodes.

From 2010 to 2016, 58 whole-body FCH PET/MRI studies with mpMRI acquisitions were performed in 53 prostate cancer patients relapsing after curative RP. Median PSA and PSA doubling time (PSA DT) at PET study were 1.
