PSA density improves the rate of prostate cancer detection in Chinese men with a PSA between 2.5-10.0 ng ml -1 and 10.1-20.0 ng ml -1 : a multicenter study

PSA density improves the rate of prostate cancer detection in Chinese men with a PSA between 2.5-10.0 ng ml -1 and 10.1-20.0 ng ml -1 : a multicenter study

Chinese men should have a higher prostate-specific antigen (PSA) "gray zone" than the traditional value of 2.5-10.0 ng ml−1 since the incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) in Chinese men is relative low. We hypothesized that PSA density (PSAD) could improve the rate of PCa detection in Chines...
