  1. *Calculations were based on a required activity of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 of 2 MBq/kg (average weight is 80 kg) when using conventional PET/CT and 50 MBq when using LAFOV PET/CT (EMA 2023). Time of positioning and scanning of a patient was assumed to be 45 min for conventional PET/CT and 15 min for LAFOV PET/CT
