Prospective validation of %p2PSA and the Prostate Health Index, in prostate cancer detection in initial prostate biopsies of Asian men, with total PSA 4–10 ng ml(−1)
Despite its widespread use for prostate cancer screening, low specificity makes PSA a suboptimal biomarker, especially in the diagnostic “gray zone” of 4–10 ng ml(−1). False-positives lead to unnecessary biopsies with attendant morbidities. This is the first prospective validation study of %p2PSA an...
