Prostate Specific Antigen

• Cat.No.: CDA020

Specification

• Cat. No.: CDA020
• Description: Prostate specific antigen is a protein produced by the cells of the prostate gland. PSA is present in small quantities in the serum of normal men, and is often elevated in the presence of prostate cancer and in other prostate disorders. A blood test to measure PSA is the most effective test currently available for the early detection of prostate cancer. Rising levels of PSA over time are associated with both localized and metastatic prostate cancer (CaP).
