18F-Fluciclovine PET is approved for the evaluation of patients with suspected prostate cancer recurrence. 18F-Fluciclovine PET is highly specific for the localization of extraprostatic disease even with negative conventional images and low prostate-specific antigen and has been reported to influence patients' management and improve outcome. With the recent Food and Drug Administration approval of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET, 18F-Fluciclovine is likely to be used as an adjunct modality in patients with suspected occult local recurrence and/or negative PSMA findings.
