Summary

This prospective, single-center study evaluates the clinical utility of F18-Piflufolastat (PSMA) PET/CT when added to conventional cross-sectional imaging for patients with suspected or confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The study aims to determine whether PSMA PET/CT improves diagnostic accuracy for indeterminate liver lesions (LI-RADS 3 and 4), enhances staging precision in treatment-naïve patients, and provides more accurate assessment of treatment response in patients undergoing locoregional therapy (LRT). The goal is to assess how PSMA PET/CT may impact clinical decision-making, staging, and management of HCC across multiple stages of disease.
