(In the USA Zytiga (abiraterone) is covered by insurance after chemotherapy with Taxotere (docetaxel). In late 2012, the USA FDA approved its use pre-chemotherapy. In Australia, as of 17 December 2012, Zytiga (abiraterone) may be prescribed, but is not covered by PBS. Xtandi (enzalutamide) was given USA FDA approval in August 2012 for use after chemotherapy. It is not available in Australia.) 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, 5ARI Avodart (dutasteride) which inhibits types I & II, Proscar (Finasteride), Propecia (Finasteride) which inhibits only type II Estrogen DES Diethyl diphosphate (stilbestrol, Stilphostrol, Stilbestrol), Estradiol (also spelled oestradiol).

Best to view hard body tissues like bone, but by introducing contrast agents into the patient can be used on many types of tissues. PET: Positron emission tomography – using gamma rays from an agent introduced into the patient. Usually done in a CT machine, it can be thought of as a CT scan with a radionuclide tracer injected. MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging – using magnetism. Best to view soft body tissues, but by introducing contrast agents into the patient can be used on many types of tissues.Economic issues: A modern 3,0 Tesla MRI scanner costs more than $2 million, and the specially shielded MRI suite around $500,000 on top. Scans to cover this investment may cost more than other scans, though the cost of newer contrast agents may be a factor in these and other scans as well. Chemotherapy Taxotere (docetaxel), Jevtana (Cabazitaxel), Novantrone/DHAD (Mitoxantrone (sometimes spelt mitozantrone)) Flow and scaring Trental (pentoxifylline) two or three times a day has been shown to reduce scaring after radiation. Flomax is FDA-approved for two 0.4 mg tabs a day for flow.
