After surgery for prostate cancer (prostatectomy).After your prostate has been removed, your PSA will generally drop within a couple of months to a very low or even undetectable level. If you still have PSA in your blood, your doctor may suggest a few more PSA tests to see if this level...
The number of deaths from prostate cancer has gone down since PSA testing became available. This is likely because testing allowed doctors to diagnose some people before their cancer became advanced. Using the PSA Blood Test After Prostate Cancer Diagnosis ...

Intervention may be beneficial for some patients after early detection of recurrence based on PSA levels. Monitoring PSA levels can cause complications related to the invasive nature of the diagnostic procedure, according to the study. The authors noted that this may be dangerous for older ...
PSA testing has made prostate cancer screening a reality for men in many parts of the world, but its benefit for men's health continues to be debated. In men exposed to PSA testing, there has been a well-documented change in the presentation of prostate
In a study by Trock et al, the use of the GC in patients after they undergo radical prostatectomy (RP) can inform how further treatment should progress. The findings could affect the treatment algorithm in men who are at high to very high risk after RP by stratifying risk associated with...
Scardino PT, Eastham JA, Vickers AJ, Lilja H. Pretreatment prostatespecific antigen (PSA) velocity and doubling time are associated with outcome but neither improves prediction of outcome beyond pretreatment PSA alone in pat...
PSA testing also plays a crucial role in monitoring patients who have undergone treatment for prostate cancer. In cases where the patient is deemed cancer-free, their PSA levels should decrease to within the normal range. Following radical prostatectomy (removal of the entire prostate), PSA levels...
