ABSTRACT
Within 48 hours after surgery, disease assessment in glioblastoma is a challenge for both the clinician and the radiologist. Certain technical and logistical issues prevail in this period. Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen PET/CT is a known molecular imaging marker in prostate cancer. Its role in high-grade gliomas has been recently discussed. We present a case of a 39-year-old man with recurrence glioblastoma of the right frontal lobe and underwent resurgery. After surgery, Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen PET/CT showed residual disease along the posterior and inferior margin of the postoperative cavity.
