      <Abstract>This is a case of a 69-year-old patient with Prostate Cancer (PCa) who underwent PSMA PET in three different evaluation scenarios: Biochemical Relapse (BCR), response assessment and differential diagnosis between Radiation-induced Brain Necrosis (RBN), and neoplastic tissue viability. PSMA PET showed superiority compared to conventional imaging exams in all scenarios and impacted on the management of the patient.</Abstract>
