What does it measure?

 

Total Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

Total prostate specific antigen (PSA) refers to the total volume of PSA in the blood. PSA is found in semen and in the bloodstream.

 

Free Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

Free prostate specific antigen (PSA) refers to the amount of PSA in the blood that is not bound to other proteins. Free PSA levels are divided by total PSA to calculate the prostate-specific antigen ratio.

 

Prostate Specific Antigen Ratio Calculated
The calculated Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) ratio refers to total PSA levels versus free PSA levels. If you have a high PSA level and a low free PSA level, you are more likely to have prostate cancer.
