| Rapid
and convenient test for the detection of elevated prostate
specific antigen (PSA) concentration in blood.
The PSA is secreted by the prostate. The prostate antigen
level gives information about the prostate physiological condition.
Thus, levels above the norm may show pathology of the prostate
(benign hypertrophy, prostatitis, cancer, etc). The PSA assay
should be performed at least once a year in men over 50 years.
In case of prostate problem, early screening allows considerably
increasing recovery possibilities.
