PRISM: Patient Experiences With PET Imaging in Prostate Cancer

Description

The purpose of this study is to examine patient experiences, health-related quality of life, and decision-making associated with PET imaging for prostate cancer. In particular, Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) PET, a new and more sensitive form of imaging that can help identify metastatic cancer earlier and more reliably.
