The diagnostic accuracy of radiolabeled PSMA-ligand PET for tumour staging in newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients compared to histopathology: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The present investigation has demonstrated that PSMA PET/MRI surpasses currently recommended multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) in terms of diagnostic accuracy as inferred from a notable data trajectory, whereas PSMA-PET/CT exhibited comparable diagnostic accuracy for intraprostatic tumour detection and T-staging compared to mpMRI. Nevertheless, the analysis has identified certain potential limitations, such as small-study effects and a potential for publication bias, which may impact the overall conclusions drawn from this study.
