PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To determine if administering 20 mg furosemide intravenously (IV) at the time of radiotracer injection significantly reduces bladder activity compared with the same patient scanned without furosemide as internal control.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To compare detection rates of recurrent disease in blinded interpretations between the furosemide and non-furosemide 18FrhPSMA-7.3 PET/CT scans, with patients serving as their own internal controls.
II. To compare reader confidence in identifying prostate bed and other recurrent lesions on a 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 PET/CT with furosemide compared with 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 PET/CT without furosemide.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive 18F-rhPSMA 7.3 tracer IV and then undergo PET-CT scans with and without furosemide IV on study.
