About PSA Test

A PSA test measures the level of prostate-specific antigen in the blood. Elevated levels may indicate prostate cancer, but can also be caused by benign conditions like an enlarged prostate (BPH) or prostatitis. Screening recommendations vary; discuss with your doctor whether PSA testing is appropriate for you.

Understanding Your Bill

PSA is a single blood test. Lab draw fees may be charged separately.
