An empirical evaluation of guidelines on prostate-specific antigen velocity in prostate cancer detection.
BACKGROUND: The National Comprehensive Cancer Network and American Urological Association guidelines on early detection of prostate cancer recommend biopsy on the basis of high prostate-specific antigen (PSA) velocity, even in the absence of other indications such as an elevated PSA or a positive d...
