Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the role of prostate specific antigen(PSA)、free prostate specific antigen(FPSA) and bone scintigraphic imaging in diagnosis of skeletal metastasis of prostate cancer.Methods: 70 patients with prostate cancer were made bone scintigraphy and were detected the concentration of PSA and FPSA.Results: 7 cases of 14 cases(50%) with PSA4ng/ml had skeletal metastasis;6 of 7 cases (87%) with PSA 4ng/ml~20ng/ml had skeletal metastasis.45 of 49 cases(92%) with PSA20ng/ml had skeletal metastasis.Conclusion: Detection of PSA and FPSA combined with bone scintigraphy is a valuable scheme for diagnosis of skeletal metstasis of prostate cancer.[
