Don't the pictures/scans speak enough about the efficacy of the drug at this point?

Those pictures along with the biochemical improvements......I think yes.......

But it does seem that the bone scans themselves as isolated tests, are flawed unless there is concordance with other data.

BTW, has anyone seen/know an explanation for why the PSA increased?

I was looking at the drop in PSA with treatments like radiation and it is clear that the PSA can stay elevated for quite some time. But has the spike ever been described?
