The accuracy of the increased prostate specific antigen level (greater than or equal to 20 ng./ml.) in predicting prostate cancer: is biopsy always required?
Abstract
Urologists are often referred patients who initially present with an extremely high serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) level. Despite a presumptive diagnosis of prostate cancer, many of these men undergo biopsy to obtain a tissue diagnosis before treatment with androgen ablative therapy.
