F18 DCFPyL PET/CT in Imaging Participants With Recurrent Prostate Cancer
This study provides fluorine F 18 DCFPyL positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) to participants with prostate cancer that has come back. Diagnostic procedures, such as fluorine F 18 DCFPyL PET/CT, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.
Stanford is currently not accepting patients for this trial.
