At last, the present data available seem to favour their contribution to improve selecting patients for active surveillance. For the same cancer, but at a metastatic stage resistant to androgenic deprivation, therano stics is providing an elegant targeting of disseminated tumor cells using a PSMA radio-active ligand fatal for the latter.
