abstract = {Since the clinical introduction of (68)Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT,
this imaging method has rapidly spread and is now regarded
as a significant step forward in the diagnosis of recurrent
prostate cancer (PCa). The aim of this study was to analyse
the influence of several variables with possible influence
on PSMA ligand uptake in a large cohort.We performed a
retrospective analysis of 1007 consecutive patients who were
scanned with (68)Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT (1 h after injection)
from January 2014 to January 2017 to detect recurrent
disease. Patients with untreated primary PCa or patients
referred for PSMA radioligand therapy were excluded. The
possible effects of different variables including PSA level
and PSA doubling time (PSADT), PSA velocity (PSAVel),
Gleason score (GSC, including separate analysis of GSC 7a
and 7b), ongoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), patient
age and amount of injected activity were evaluated.In
$79.5\%$ of patients at least one lesion with
characteristics suggestive of recurrent PCa was detected. A
pathological (positive) PET/CT scan was associated with PSA
level and ADT. GSC, amount of injected activity, patient
age, PSADT and PSAVel were not associated with a positive
PET/CT scan in multivariate analysis.(68)Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT
detects tumour lesions in a high percentage of patients with
recurrent PCa. Tumour detection is clearly associated with
PSA level and ADT. Only a tendency for an association
without statistical significance was found between higher
GSC and a higher probability of a pathological PET/CT scan.
No associations were found between a pathological
(68)Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan and patient age, amount of
injected activity, PSADT or PSAVel.},
