Summary
This phase II/III trial studies gallium 68 Ga (68Ga)-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) in finding tumors in patients with prostate cancer undergoing surgery that tend to spread quickly (intermediate-risk) or is likely to come back or spread (high-risk). Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/MRI, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread. Radioactive drugs, such as gallium Ga 68-PSMA, binds to tumor cells that have specific receptors, and may allow doctors to see smaller tumors than the standard of care contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) or MRI scan.
