Abstrakt: Background: 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT is superior to standard-of-care imaging for detecting regional and distant metastatic recurrent prostate cancer. The objective of our study was to evaluate the performance of 68Ga-PSMAPET/CT in our patient population, using the new PSMA-RADS version 2.0. Methods: A total of 128 patients scanned with 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT for detection of recurrence after RP were analyzed with PSMA-RADS version 2.0. For the analysis of the detection rate, categories PSMA-RADS 3 to 5 were considered as "positive for malignancy" and 1–2 as "negative". Results: According to PSMA-RADS v2.0, we classified patients as follows: 23 patients without PSMA-RADS because they were negative; PSMA-RADS 1: 10 patients; PSMA-RADS 2: 4 patients; PSMA-RADS 3A: 11 patients; PSMA-RADS 3B: 2 patients; PSMA-RADS 3C: 2 patients; PSMA-RADS 3D: 2 patients; PSMA-RADS 4: 13 patients; PSMA-RADS 5: 61 patients. Conclusions: The overall detection rate of 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT was 71%. By dividing the patients into fourgroups according to PSA level before examination, we obtained the following detection rates: PSA < 0.2 ng/mL 38%; 0.2 ≤ PSA < 0.5 ng/mL 57%; 0.5 ≤ PSA ≤ 1 ng/mL 77%; and PSA > 1 ng/mL 95%. Conclusion: Using PSMA-RADS version 2.0, we obtained detection rate values comparable with recent literature both in absolute terms and in relation to different PSA levels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
