After that, you will undergo any necessary additional tests, such as an assessment of your liver and kidney function, a scintigraphy of your skeleton and salivary glands, a PSMA PET\/CT (additional cost). This will allow the doctor to calculate your individual dosage of the radionuclide.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><strong>PSMA therapy with Lutetium-177<\/strong>&nbsp;is carried out via intravenous administration of a solution containing the radioactive isotope, Lutetium-177. The solution is injected through a catheter. This is a short procedure, as the infusion usually takes no more than 20 minutes.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">During the procedure, you will need to apply cooling bags to your salivary glands, as Lutetium-177 partially accumulates in the salivary glands, affecting their function and causing a dry mouth. You will also receive intravenous saline solutions to protect your kidneys.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">After the infusion of Lutetium-177, you will stay in a specially equipped (radiation-shielded) ward for 48 hours. The drug is quickly excreted by the kidneys, and after 48 hours you will no longer be dangerous to others. During these 48 hours, you can read, use a mobile phone, tablet or computer &ndash; none of these devices will be a source of radiation in the future.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><strong>Follow-up examinations<\/strong>&nbsp;include whole-body scintigraphy and computed tomography in 24 hours, and then again 48 hours after the procedure.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"program_required_documents mt-4\"><h4>Required documents<\/h4><ul>\n\t<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Medical records<\/li>\n\t<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">MRI\/CT scan (not older than 3 months)<\/li>\n\t<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Biopsy results (if available)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>","program_full_story_crm":"<ul>\n\t<li>Initial presentation in the clinic<\/li>\n\t<li>history taking<\/li>\n\t<li>general clinical examination<\/li>\n\t<li>laboratory tests:\n\t<ul>\n\t\t<li>complete blood count<\/li>\n\t\t<li>biochemical analysis of blood<\/li>\n\t\t<li>urinalysis<\/li>\n\t\t<li>TSH-basal, fT3, fT4<\/li>\n\t\t<li>PSA blood test<\/li>\n\t\t<li>tests for urogenital infections<\/li>\n\t\t<li>indicators of inflammation<\/li>\n\t\t<li>indicators of blood coagulation<\/li>\n\t<\/ul>\n\t<\/li>\n\t<li>ultrasound scan of the urogenital system<\/li>\n\t<li>renal scintigraphy<\/li>\n\t<li>PSMA PET-CT (if indicated)<\/li>\n\t<li>PSMA treatment<\/li>\n\t<li>full body scintigraphy after 24 hours<\/li>\n\t<li>full body scintigraphy after 48&nbsp;hours<\/li>\n\t<li>symptomatic treatment<\/li>\n\t<li>cost of essential medicines<\/li>\n\t<li>nursing services<\/li>\n\t<li>elaboration of further recommendations<\/li>\n\t<li>stay in the hospital with full board&nbsp;<\/li>\n\t<li>accommodation in a room with 2 beds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"program_how_program_going mt-4\"><h4>How program is carried out<\/h4><p style=\"text-align:justify\"><strong>During the first visit<\/strong>,&nbsp;the doctor will carry out a general physical examination and go through the results of your previous laboratory and instrumental tests.
