FREE PSA Test - Book Test at Low Cost

The Prostate-Specific Antigen (Free) Test determines how much unbound, or free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is present in the blood. PSA is found in the blood in two forms: complexed PSA (bound to other proteins) and free PSA. PSA testing, both free and total, can aid in the diagnosis of prostate issues, including prostate cancer. However, only when compared to the findings of an entire PSA test are the results beneficial.

A decreased risk of prostate cancer is associated with a larger ratio of free PSA to total PSA. A low proportion of free PSA to total PSA, on the other hand, implies a higher risk of prostate cancer. Although free PSA testing is faster, less expensive, and less invasive than biopsies, they cannot confirm or rule out malignancy. A biopsy may be recommended if the levels first indicate a possible risk of prostate cancer.

Why done? 

The PSA (Free) Test is carried out to detect:

• To determine whether a prostate biopsy is necessary for patients with elevated PSA (Total) values.
• Distinguishing between prostate cancer and other benign prostate gland disorders such as BPH.

Procedure: 

You'll have blood extracted from an arm vein. 

How does one prepare for the test? 

The sample should be taken before or several days after a digital rectal examination or rectal prostatic ultrasonography and before or several days after a prostate biopsy.

• A valid government ID.
