Question

A client's prostate-specific antigen (psa) exam result showed a psa density of 0.13 ng/ml. which conclusion regarding this lab data is accurate?

Answer 1

The conclusion drawn from a client whose prostate-specific antigen (PSA) exam result shows a PSA density of 0.13 ng/ml, is a low risk for prostate cancer.

The PSA test is a blood examination used primarily for prostate cancer screening. The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level in your blood is determined by the test. The prostate is a tiny gland that resides underneath the bladder in males. Both malignant and noncancerous cells in the prostate produce the protein known as PSA.

Between 1.0 and 1.5 ng/ml is considered the normal range. If a PSA score increases by a particular amount in a single year, it may also be deemed abnormal. High PSA levels can indicate either prostate cancer, a non-cancerous illness like prostatitis, or an enlarged prostate gland.
