This study aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of [18F]PSMA-1007 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) (18F-PSMA) and [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT (68Ga-PSMA) by identifying prostate-specific antigen (PSA) threshold levels for optimal detecting recurrent prostate cancer (PC) and to compare both methods. Retrospectively, the study included 264 patients. The performances of 18F-PSMA and 68Ga-PSMA in relation to the pre-scan PSA were assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. 18F-PSMA showed PC-lesions in 87.5% (112/128 patients), while 68Ga-PSMA identified them in 88.9% (121/136). For 18F-PSMA biochemical recurrent (BCR) patients treated with radical prostatectomy (78/128, patient group: F-RP), a PSA of 1.08 ng/mL was found to be the optimal cut-off level for predicting positive and negative scans (AUC = 0.821; 95%, CI: 0.710–0.932), while for prostatectomized 68Ga-PSMA BCR-patients (89/136, patient group: Ga-RP), the cut-off was 1.84 ng/mL (AUC = 0.588; 95%, CI: 0.410–0.766). In patients with PSA < 1.08 ng/mL (F-RP) 76.3% and |
