Diagnostic quality IV-contrasted CT combined with 68 Ga-PSMA PET/CT for staging of prostate cancer identified significant other non-prostate cancer findings, including renal, lung, gastrointestinal and haematological malignancies. Many of these conditions impact on patient management and required further investigation or treatment prior to management of the prostate cancer.
