How do I prepare for a PSMA PET Scan?

November 17, 2021Sean Wonsch

Unlike other types of PET scans, there are no special preparation instructions for PSMA PET Scans.  There is no need to fast, no need to avoid any specific food types, and no special need to drink ‘extra’ water to prepare for your scan.  There is also no need to delay or refrain from taking your medications (take all your medications as per your normal routine).  If you are diabetic, there are no special precautions needed.  Take your diabetic medications and maintain your normal dietary patterns as per your doctor’s instructions.
