%X Since the introduction of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with (68)Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC (=(68)Ga-DKFZ-PSMA-11), this method has been regarded as a significant step forward in the diagnosis of recurrent prostate cancer (PCa). However, published data exist for small patient cohorts only. The aim of this evaluation was to analyse the diagnostic value of (68)Ga-PSMA-ligand PET/CT in a large cohort and the influence of several possibly interacting variables.We performed a retrospective analysis in 319 patients who underwent (68)Ga-PSMA-ligand PET/CT from 2011 to 2014. Potential influences of several factors such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level and doubling time (DT), Gleason score (GSC), androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), age and amount of injected tracer were evaluated. Histological verification was performed in 42 patients after the (68)Ga-PSMA-ligand PET/CT. Tracer uptake was measured in 901 representative tumour lesions.In 82.8
