PSA - Phoenix AZ 85018

The PSA, or prostate cancer screening program, was developed by the National Cancer Institute in 1992. It has evolved a great deal over the years. As a prostate cancer screening program, there are many factors which can be taken into consideration before deciding which particular PSA to use. There are two different types of PSA, the PSA level or PSA interval test and the PSA predictive value test. Both are used in different ways depending on the situation that is faced. It is important for anyone who decides to go ahead with a PSA screening to know all the facts before proceeding.

For example, what the interval test will do is compare the PSA levels of men at various points in their lives and find out how close a man’s PSA levels have come to be cancerous. This information can be useful in determining which type of test is most appropriate for a particular individual. It can also help determine the best course of action when it comes to early detection. If you are a man, you should not take the PSA test on your own. It must be done by someone who has experience with PSA testing.

When it comes to taking the test, it should not be taken more than once every year to specifically look for prostate cancer in specific men. PSA testing for a number of reasons can cause false alarms. By taking the test annually, you are avoiding any false alarms.
