PET/CT with Pylarify available at ARA
A PARADIGM SHIFT IN IDENTIFYING PROSTATE CANCER
ARA is excited to offer a revolutionary radiotracer for the identification of prostate cancer. PET/CT imaging using the new PSMA targeting radiotracer Pylarify is a big step forward in the initial staging and restaging of metastatic prostate cancer. ARA is currently accepting self-pay patients for Pylarify PET/CT scans, which are FDA approved, but not yet covered by Medicare or private insurance. Medicare coverage is expected to begin in January 2022.
